An unidentified body has been found floating along the Cunupia River.
The grisly discovery was made at around 6 o’ clock this morning.
The body was said to be floating face down in the water. It was found to be in a decomposing state.
Guardian Media was told that fishermen who store their fishing pirogues by the cremation site Lakhan Karriah in Felicity went to secure them because of approaching storm when they made the horrific discovery.
The body was viewed by the District Medical Officer who ordered its removal to the Forensic Science Centre pending an autopsy and identification.
Investigations are continuing.
