A body found in the Spanish province Malaga is most likely that of a missing 75-year-old Dutch woman, local police say. The body was discovered in a disused quarry in the outskirts of Malaga.

The woman has not been seen since July 2010. Local police say her identity papers were found alongside the body.

The cause of death has not been confirmed. The quarry where she was found has not been used for years. Police say the location of the quarry is a considerable distance away from the place where the woman was last seen.
