A 20-year-old man has appeared in court charged with the murder of a scientist who was found fatally injured in a Dundee street.
Dr Fortune Gomo, 39, was treated by paramedics but died in South Road, in the city's Lochee area on Saturday afternoon.
Kyler Rattray, from Dundee, made no plea and was remanded in custody when he appeared in private at Dundee Sheriff Court.
Dr Gomo, who was originally from Mutare in eastern Zimbabwe, had graduated with a PhD from Dundee University, and recently started working for Scottish Water.
A statement released by the Zimbabwean embassy on Monday night said Dr Gomo had been fatally stabbed.
It announced that an embassy team had been sent to Dundee to "engage with Scottish authorities on the ongoing investigation" and would support and assist Dr Gomo's immediate family.
The statement also said the team would "ensure that Zimbabwean citizens are treated with dignity and that justice is pursued diligently."
Dr Gomo's family in Zimbabwe told BBC News they were still in shock at the news of his death.
Her brother Regis Nyatsanza said she would have turned 40 in a few weeks' time, and they had recently been discussing how she might celebrate.
Speaking from Harare, he said his sister was the eldest of four siblings and was seen as the "deputy parent" of the family.
"Two weeks ago we were laughing about throwing her a big 40th birthday bash but she said she had achieved most of what she wanted," he said.
"After all the struggle she had everything she wanted and so she was going to have a quiet celebration."
A friend of Dr Gomo, Angela Machonesa, wrote on Facebook that she had been at school and university with her in Zimbabwe, and that her death had left her devastated.
She said: "Her brilliance in the classroom was only matched by her emotional intelligence. She was the kind of person you'd go to when you needed clarity, not just of mind, but of heart.
"We are heartbroken. We are angry. We are disoriented. But we are also united in one voice: Fortune Gomo mattered. Her life mattered. Her legacy must never be forgotten."
