A post-mortem examination is due to be carried out today after a woman's body was discovered in Dublin.

The remains were found in some shrubbery in Coolmine Woods yesterday afternoon.

The death is being treated as suspicious and the remains have been there for an extended period of time. 

The remains were found during  a search for missing woman Linda Christian.

Linda Christian has been missing for over three weeks. 

The body has yet to be formally identified. 

Flowers were laid at Coolmine Woods last night.
