Body may be architect's

David Yeates, the father of missing British architect Joanna Yeates, said he would be relieved if the body of a young woman discovered 5km from his daughter's flat was her.

Yeates, 63, said he and his wife assumed their daughter was dead and they would like to say goodbye. The 25-year-old has not been seen or heard from since December 17.
