Police have made three further arrests following the death of a man whose body was found in a field in Inverclyde.
The body of Robert Best, 50, was found close to High Mathernock Farm near Kilmacolm on Tuesday last week.
He had been reported missing from Greenock the same day.
Police Scotland said two women, aged 41 and 64, and a 41-year-old man have been arrested in connection with his death.
