The family of a British builder missing after a stag weekend in Prague have confirmed his body has been found in the city's Vltava River.
A body was discovered beneath a city centre bridge on Sunday afternoon, three weeks after Karl Law, from Fareham in Hampshire, vanished.
Czech police were due to carry out an autopsy on Monday, but his family have already been informed the body belongs to Mr Law.
The 35-year-old's mother Sue, brother Craig and other family and friends remain in Prague at the rented apartment where they have been running an appeal campaign since he disappeared.
Friends have been leaving messages of condolence on a Facebook page set up to help the search.
Scott Oakley said: "So sad to hear this. My thoughts are with his family. You've gone through more things in the space of a few weeks than most people go through in a lifetime."
Kerry Snuggs added: "So sad to see this, my prayers are with all of you at this awful sad time.
"There's no such thing as closure in a time of sorrow like this as you will never forget, but I hope in time that your pain will ease and you will find some comfort in knowing Karl was clearly loved by so many people."
Mr Law became separated from his brother and friends on a pub crawl to celebrate a friend's forthcoming wedding.
The last person to see Mr Law was his cousin Steve Stock, wandering near Maxim's Bar close to the centre of Prague's lively old town.
By the time it was found his body was too decomposed to be readily identified.
It is believed the body had only underpants and there was no sign of the clothes Mr Law had been wearing when he vanished.
The absence of clothes might suggest Mr Law was the victim of a crime.
A small group of searchers, led by Mr Law's brother Craig, had put up thousands of posters and appealed for help all over the city.
A British embassy spokeswoman said: "We can confirm the death of a British national, who was reported missing in Prague, and are in touch with the local authorities.
"We are in close contact with the family and are providing consular assistance at this difficult time."
