Detective Superintendent Steve Fulcher said: “I would like to thank the local community and the media for all their help and support in this case. This is understandably a deeply distressing time for Sian’s family and I would like to express my gratitude to the media for leaving them to grieve in peace.”

Key points

• Soon after Sian was reported missing by her boyfriend, Kevin, officers became very concerned for her safety and welfare as this behaviour was completely out of character.
• As a result of CCTV and technical analysis of her mobile phone we established Sian left Suju nightclub in Swindon at 2:52am intending to go home. Her mobile phone was live and our technical means indicated that at least the phone and possibly Sian were within a 6 1/2 kilometre radius of a mobile phone mast in Savernake Forest.
• Through CCTV and other images officers were able to establish that a green Toyota Avensis had been seen near to Suju nightclub during the relevant time. From this we were able to identify the registration of the vehicle which led us to believe that Sian had been abducted and taken away in this vehicle. The investigation proceeded on the basis that Sian was still alive with the aim of finding her.
• Separate searches commenced in the Savernake area and to locate the vehicle and individual driving it.
• Late yesterday morning (Thursday) the vehicle was stopped and a man was arrested on suspicion of kidnap. He remains in custody at Gablecross Police Station.
• This man indicated two locations. One near Uffington in Oxfordshire where a body of a woman, believed to be Sian, was discovered. The body has since been recovered.
• A post-mortem examination is currently taking place.
• The second location is Eastleach, Gloucestershire, where we believe a second body may be. Searches are currently being conducted in this area which could take several days.
• Subsequently the man in custody was arrested on suspicion of kidnap and two murders. At this time, he has not been charged and remains in custody. An application to magistrates for a warrant of further detention may be made later today.
• With regard to the second body, we are concentrating our efforts on a historic case of one missing adult from Wiltshire.

Chief Superintendent Steve Hedley said:

• Cases such as this are very rare in Swindon and Wiltshire as a whole.
• We are very grateful for the support of the public and hope that the positive relationship between the local community and police continues.
• Despite the rarity of cases such as this, it is important for the public to adhere to personal safety advice when out late at night.

• As part of the investigation into the death of Sian O’Callaghan, we searched a field in Eastleach in Gloucestershire where we discovered human remains.
• As a result of a positive hit on the National DNA Database, we have been able to identify those remains as Rebecca Godden-Edwards also known as Becky.
• It was Becky’s birthday yesterday and she would have been 29 years old.
• Becky’s family and loved ones are trying to come to terms with this devastating news and we are affording them all the support we can at this stage. I’m sure you will join me in extending your deepest sympathy to them at this very difficult time and will appreciate that they have asked that people respect their privacy to allow them to grieve in peace.
• Becky was from the Shaw area of Swindon. She was reported missing to the National Missing Persons helpline in 2007 after her family became concerned when they hadn’t had contact with her for some time.
• At this stage it is not clear how Becky came about her death but further work is on-going to help determine this.
• Enquiries are continuing to establish the circumstances surrounding Becky’s disappearance and subsequent death. Part of these enquiries will be to speak to Chris Halliwell and we will then make a decision on any appropriate steps to take.
• All outstanding lines of enquiry will be followed up including forensic results and information on Christopher Halliwell’s background.
• Becky and Sian O’Callaghan did not know each other.
• I am making a direct appeal to anyone who knew Becky from 2002 onwards and may have information that could help my investigation to contact Wiltshire Police on 0845 408 7000. People can also contact Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111 where information can be left anonymously if they wish. I’m interested in Becky’s movements, friends and lifestyle. Any information we receive will be treated in the strictest of confidence.

I would like to thank our forensic teams and Dr. James Walker and his team at LGC Forensics for giving us such a rapid and accurate identification.Update from Chief Superintendent Steve Hedley, Commander for Swindon and Wiltshire:

• Cases such as this are very rare in Swindon and Wiltshire as a whole.
• We are working with our partner agencies to ensure that the community is kept informed.
• We are very grateful for the support of the public and hope that the positive relationship between the local community and police continues.
• While incidents such as this are rare, I would always advise the public to adhere to personal safety advice when out late at night.

Some basic measures you can take to reduce your chances of becoming a victim of crime include:

• Always make sure someone knows where you are going and what time you will be home.
• Stick with friends when you are out and about.
• Try not to walk alone.
• When walking with friends, stick to well lit, busy areas and never be tempted to take short cuts through quiet or unlit areas.

Statement on behalf of the Edwards family:

Rebecca was described as Becky Godden in the press conference and briefing. However, her family would prefer it if she is referred to as Becky Godden-Edwards, as had she been alive today she would have taken on the Edwards name.
