Search teams are continuing to scour Aberdeen Harbour in the hunt for two sisters who went missing almost two weeks ago. 

Eliza and Henrietta Huszti, both aged 32, were last spotted on CCTV in the city's Market Street at Victoria Bridge at about 2.12am on Tuesday 7 January.

The women were seen crossing the bridge and turning right on to a footpath next to the River Dee in the direction of Aberdeen Boat Club.

The siblings' disappearance has sparked a major Police Scotland operation, with searches continuing on Monday in the harbour area.

The force previously said there had been "no evidence" of the women leaving the immediate area and there had been nothing to suggest "suspicious circumstances or criminality".

The investigation has so far revealed that the sisters - who are part of a set of triplets and originally from Hungary - visited the bridge where they were last seen about 12 hours before they disappeared.

They also sent a text message to their landlady on the morning they vanished, indicating they would not be returning to the flat.

Specialist advisers and a police helicopter have been involved in the search, along with the force's dog branch and marine unit.

In a statement released via Police Scotland last week, the women's family said: "This has been a very worrying and upsetting time for our family.

"We are really worried about Eliza and Henrietta and all we want is for them to be found."
