NORFOLK, ENGLAND (BNO NEWS) -- British police have launched a murder investigation after human remains were found on the Queen's Sandringham estate in eastern England, officials said on Tuesday morning.

The remains were found in an area of woodland at Anmer, a tiny village which is part of Sandringham estate in Norfolk county. The body, identified as female, was found by a member of the public at around 4 p.m. local time on Sunday.

"Detectives from Norfolk Constabulary have confirmed they have launched a murder investigation following the discovery of human remains in an area of woodland in Anmer, near King's Lynn," a spokesperson for Norfolk Constabulary said on Tuesday. "The area has been sealed off and a detailed search is currently being carried out."

The spokesperson said examinations of the scene are being conducted by forensic experts in pathology and anthropology and are expected to be completed later on Tuesday. "A post mortem (autopsy) is due to take place this afternoon," the spokesperson added.

The estate of Queen Elizabeth II is used by the royal family to spend some of its holidays, including the recent Christmas and New Year's holidays.
