Experts believe the image is a very accurate representation of the woman's face

The killer who hid a woman's body in a shallow grave on an Edinburgh hill left no DNA at the scene, police have confirmed.

The woman's remains were discovered in a wooded area of Corstorphine Hill on 6 June by a cyclist.

Experts have created a reconstruction of how they think she would have looked, using a CT scan of her skull.

The image, which was released by police on Monday, has prompted more than 30 calls from the public.

Officers said they had received calls from as far away as Israel with suggestions of her possible identity.

Detectives are now following up the calls.

Police also plan to circulate the image locally to homes and businesses around the Corstorphine Hill area.
