Devastating details have emerged about a young woman who went missing from her Canberra home in late September.

A woman whose remains were found in NSW after going missing in Canberra was an employee at the French Embassy.

Mathilde Ines Pouliquin’s remains were found in NSW.

Ms Pouliquin’s body was found near Wells Creek at Berrima in NSW’s southern highlands.
