Two missing sisters in Aberdeen made an earlier visit to the bridge where they were last seen hours before they disappeared, CCTV footage has revealed. Police Scotland said a text message was also sent to the women's landlady on the morning they vanished, indicating they would not be returning to the flat.
Eliza and Henrietta Huszti, both aged 32, were last spotted in the city's Market Street at Victoria Bridge at about 2.12am on Tuesday 7 January. The siblings - who are part of a set of triplets and originally from Hungary - were seen crossing the bridge and turning right on to a footpath next to the River Dee in the direction of Aberdeen Boat Club.
Their disappearance has sparked a major search operation. In an update on Friday, Police Scotland said the sisters were seen at the same bridge at around 2.50pm on Monday 6 January - around 12 hours before they were last seen. The force said the siblings, who were both wearing rucksacks, spent five minutes at the footpath and the Victoria Bridge but did not engage with anyone else.
How the case of the missing Huszti sisters in Aberdeen is just as mysterious a week after they disappeared. Russell Maitland: Aberdeenshire prison officer jailed for child rape and sexual abuse. 'Worried' family of missing sisters in Aberdeen just 'want them to be found'.
Officers are now appealing for anyone who may have seen the sisters at this earlier time to come forward. After visiting the bridge, the women are then seen on CCTV making their way through the city centre, via Union Square shopping centre, back to their flat in the Charlotte Street area.
