Scottish police say they have traced a potential witness in relation to the Karen Buckley murder investigation.

The woman was seen on Dumbarton Road near to the Gallus Pub, before walking along Church Street, at around 12:30am on Sunday April 12th.

She was described as between 18 and 25-years-old with long brown straight hair. She was wearing a short pink coloured dress, a fur jacket and was carrying a large brown shoulder bag.

Detectives say she has now been found:

Ms Buckley (24) who was from Cork went missing in April following a night out with her friends in Glasgow, where she was studying.

Her body was found on a farm four days later. She was laid to rest in Burnfort last month.

Alexander Pacteau (21) from Glasgow has been charged with her murder.

He made no plea or declaration when he made his second appearance at Glasgow Sheriff Court last month and was remanded in custody.

Ms Buckley, a qualified nurse, had moved to Scotland in February to start an occupational therapy degree at Glasgow Caledonian University.
