A Scottish woman stabbed to death at a Christmas resort in Lapland has been named.

Rebecca Johnson, 26, was found dead following the attack in the Kuttanen region of Finland on Saturday.

Her 36-year-old Czech boyfriend has been taken into custody after allegedly fleeing the scene on a dogsled.

He is being held by police on suspicion of murder following a wide-scale search in temperatures as low as -30C.

Ms Johnson, from Burntisland, Fife, is believed to have led sled-dog tours in the Kuttanen area on behalf of tour operator Santa Safari.

Following her death, a spokesman for travel company Transun, which contracts Santa Safari, said: "The thoughts of everyone at Transun go out to the family, friends and the Santa Safari team. We will do everything we can to support at this difficult time."
