A man is in custody following the discovery of a woman’s body in an Edinburgh flat yesterday.
Police were called to the flat in Hutchison Road at around 10.25am following concern for a woman. The Scottish Ambulance Service also attended the incident and the 21-year-old was pronounced dead at the scene. Her death is being treated as suspicious and a man is presently detained by detectives in connection with this.
Detective Chief Inspector Alwyn Bell of Edinburgh’s CID said: “Our thoughts are with the young woman’s family at this incredibly difficult time and officers continue to offer them support.
“The investigation into the full circumstances surrounding her death continues, however we’re not currently looking for anyone else in connection with this.
“Anyone with information who has not yet spoken to officers is urged to contact us via 101 or report this anonymously to Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.”
