Eliza and Henrietta Huszti went missing in January and a huge search was launched for them in Scotland. Two bodies found in a river in Aberdeen have been identified as those of sisters Eliza and Henrietta Huszti who went missing in January, Police Scotland have said. Police formally identified the bodies after recovering them from the River Dee on 31 January. They said there do not appear to be any suspicious circumstances.
The sisters, both aged 32, were last spotted on CCTV in Market Street at Victoria Bridge at around 2.12am on Tuesday 7 January. Superintendent David Howieson said of the discovery: “The two bodies recovered from the River Dee on Friday, 31 January, 2025 have now been formally identified as Henrietta and Eliza Huszti who were reported missing on Tuesday, 7 January, 2025. “Inquiries remain ongoing to establish the exact cause of death however there are no apparent suspicious circumstances.”.
The sisters’ family were informed before formal identification had taken place and several bouquets of flowers were left near the Queen Elizabeth Bridge, where they were last seen. Their disappearance sparked a major search operation from Police Scotland involving a police helicopter, dog branch and marine unit that ended three weeks after their disappearance. The sisters, who were part of a set of triplets, were first reported missing by their landlady after a text message was sent from Henrietta’s phone at 2.12am on 7 January, from the area of Victoria Bridge, indicating they would not be returning to the flat.
