POLICE today ruled out any suggestion of foul play after the discovery of human remains in rural Argyll.

Walkers stumbled across the badly decomposed body in woodland off the A83 near Arrochar on Thursday.

The discovery is being linked to missing 22-year-old Yulia Solodyankina.

The Russian was studying physics at Edinburgh University before she vanished last summer.

She was reported missing on June 12. Yulia was last spotted on CCTV at Glasgow's Buchanan Street bus station.

A Police Scotland spokeswoman said: "There appear to be no suspicious circumstances in connection with the death."
