Until now, the death could not be explained by investigators as enquiries into the death were carried out well into the night of the incident.

However, in a new update from police today – cops confirmed that there are no suspicious circumstances leading to her death.

A police spokesperson said: “Officers were called to an address in the Hammerfield Avenue area of Aberdeen on Friday, 16 February, 2024 following the death of a woman.

“The death is not believed to be suspicious and a report has been submitted to the Procurator Fiscal.”

The death is still unexplained however, and the woman in question has still not been identified.
