A human thigh is also believed to have been found by stunned residents close to a torso in the same area of Glasgow.

Julie, 47, was reported missing two months ago.

Doctors raised the alarm after the brain injury patient missed appoints.

But the search took a shocking twist after body parts were found in two gardens.

A pensioner said she discovered a human hip joint in her garden on Friday.

She said: "I was told that part of a leg had been found.

“I decided to have a look around and found a bone in my own garden which looked like a hip joint — it was a human bone.

“There were teeth marks on it as if the foxes had been chewing it.”

The woman’s daughter added: “I went and picked it up.

“There wasn’t any flesh or anything on it but I knew it was a human bone right away — but you don’t want to think it’s part of someone’s body."

One floral tribute left to Julie read: "From just one of the families that has suffered a similar fate, may you rest in peace Julie."
