A pregnant woman died after falling from Arthur’s Seat on her honeymoon in Edinburgh from ‘multiple injuries,’ an inquest has heard.
Fawziyah Javed was pronounced dead shortly after 10pm on September 2 last year following the incident in the iconic capital location.
The 31-year-old from Leeds was later identified by her uncle to officers in the city, a coroner’s report in Wakefield has said.

Her husband, 27-year-old Kashif Anwar, has since been charged with her murder.
Leeds Live reported assistant coroner John Hobson read out preliminary results from the pathologist's report at a hearing on Friday before the inquest was adjourned pending further investigation.
In that report, the medical cause of Fawziyah's death was listed as complications of multiple injuries after a fall from a height.
Fawziyah, who was from Headingley in Leeds, had only just got married on August 29 before her death.
She was living in Pudsey and worked as a solicitor.
After her death, devastated family members, friends and co-workers paid tribute to her.
A vigil was held for Fawziyah in the capital in February.
Her mum, Yasmin Javed, said last year that she was devastated after Fawziyah's death, adding that her daughter was "always there to help people".
She said: "I have been crying for days non-stop. My tears have dried up.
"She was my only child and was pregnant with our first grandchild.
"She was perfect in every way and never gave us any issues even as a teenager.
"Everybody loved her. We are devastated and will never get over this.

"We are traumatised for life. She was a daddy's girl, she was young, bright and had everything to live for."
There was a police van outside Fawziyah's home in Galloway Lane, Pudsey the day after her death.
Mr Anwar has already appeared in court charged with murdering his wife.
He made no plea during his appearance at Edinburgh Sheriff Court in September 2021.
