THE decomposed body of a woman was found by a walker on St Andrews beach on Friday afternoon.

Senior Police Commissioner Anthony Ferguson said: "We don't know how the person got there or see anything that we can say points directly to injuries sustained at the moment,” adding the body was decomposed, suggesting the person had been dead for a couple of days.

Officers were observed interviewing residents in the quiet area moments after the woman's remains were removed from the scene. They could not provide additional details about the incident, however, noting that it is early in the investigations.

Nonetheless, some people took to social media to identify the deceased as a woman who was reported missing recently.

A man purporting to be the woman's son took to Facebook and wrote: "Mommy RIP I love you forever … You was my mommy and my daddy. No one loved me like you. I know you wanted to see me make it in life. That's why I ain't gon' let you down, I'mma be very successful just for you … My Beautiful Queen."

Mr Ferguson said he could not say if the missing woman was indeed the person found dead.
