The family of Irish student Karen Buckley face an agonising wait before they can bring her body home for burial.

Joe Leogue takes a look-back at the week since Karen’s disappearance

“Karen was our only daughter, cherished by our family and loved by her friends. She was an outgoing girl, who travelled the world where she met lots of people and thoroughly enjoyed her life. We will miss her terribly.”

There were dramatic developments in the search for missing Cork woman Karen Buckley last night, as Glasgow Police cordoned off a farm north of the city as part of their investigation into the student’s disappearance.
