Police are trying to identify a man whose body was found in a river in Arouca on Tuesday afternoon.
Police said officers were told by a man that he was fishing on the Bacaday River, Bacaday Extension, at around 2.30 pm when he noticed the body of a naked man in a bamboo patch on the western side of the river.
Maloney police were on patrol in the area and visited the scene.
Investigators said the man's body was partly decomposed and his ethnicity was unclear.
Homicide investigators visited the scene with a district medical officer who declared the man dead.
