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.
Czech police were waiting to carry out an autopsy on the body of Karl Law, 35, from Fareham, Hampshire.
The body was washed up on the shore beneath a city centre bridge on Sunday afternoon, three weeks after Mr Law vanished.
His mother Sue, brother Craig and other family and friends were comforting each other at their rented apartment from where they have been running an appeal campaign since he disappeared.
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."
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 Karl was his cousin Steve Stock, wandering near Maxim's bar close to the centre of Prague's lively old town.
The family had been alerted by police after the discovery of the body, which 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.
