Sian O'Callaghan |
The news comes after forensic teams discovered human remains in a field in Eastleach, Gloucestershire, yesterday.
They have said they believe the remains are of a woman aged between 23 and 30 years.
The remains will now be subject of further forensic laboratory tests and a post mortem examination.
The police search at the site is expected to continue for the time being.
Detective Superintendent Steve Fulcher said he was also appealing to anyone poaching in the Eastleach area on the morning Sian O'Callaghan went missing.
He said: "I would repeat my appeal for anyone out ‘lamping’ or poaching in the Ramsbury area at anytime from 3am on Saturday 19 March to contact the force with any information they might have about suspicious activity in the area, a green Toyota Avensis estate car or persons in the area around that time.
"I would stress again that I only want information from you that is relevant to the Sian O’Callaghan inquiry. We are not interested in prosecuting anyone for lamping or poaching.
"Please contact Wiltshire Police on 0845 408 7000 with any information, no matter how trivial it may seem to you. Alternatively you can contact CrimeStoppers on 0800 555 111 where you can leave information anonymously if you prefer."
