A body has been found in the search for a Scottish man reported missing in Portugal.
Greg Monks, 38, was reported missing last week after leaving the main strip in Albufeira in the Algarve in the early hours of Wednesday morning.
Mr Monks, from Cambuslang, near Glasgow, had travelled to the resort on 27 May on a stag party with friends.
The Portuguese national Policia Judiciaria said the body of a man was found in the Cerro de Aguia area on Wednesday morning.
A Policia Judiciaria statement said the Mr Monks’ disappearance was reported to the Guarda Nacional Republicana (GNR) on 28 May.
Cerro de Aguia is about 3.1 miles (5km) from the main Albufeira strip, where Mr Monks was last seen by friends in the early hours of the morning.
The Polícia Judiciária said the body, which is yet to be formally identified, was found on a “vacant and very uneven lot”.
They said an autopsy would take place in due course.
