Glen Aplin body: Police yet to identify human remains
2nd December 2016 8:56 AM (Updated 12:48 PM)
'POLICE believe human remains found at a Glen Aplin property are male.
Detective Inspector David Isherwood said police were working to identify the remains, at the Kerridges Rd property, which they believed belonged to a man.
"At about 5pm yesterday afternoon police received information from a property owner," Det Insp Isherwood said.'
'He said it was too early to confirm the identity of the body whether they belonged to missing man Jamie Hardgraves.
"We have a fair bit of a way to go before we make that determination," he said.
"The body is in a decomposed state and until we do all examinations, forensic and otherwise, we won't be making any other comment in relation to that."
He said the state of the remains suggested they had been at the location for some time.'
'More police resources were expected at the property today. The body will later be taken to the John Tonge Centre for a post mortem.
"Hopefully that will give us a further indication of what's occurred," Det Insp Isherwood said.
Det Insp Isherwood said police had spoken to the owners of the property, and surrounding properties.
"There's nothing to suggest these people have anything to do with the human remains," he said.
"We're treating it as a crime scene, at the moment because we don't know the cause of death.
"The victim may have met with foul play, hence a crime scene's been established."
Det Insp Isherwood said a large number of people with missing loved ones had made inquiries with police since the discovery.
He urged the public not to make these inquiries at this time, as officers worked to identify the remains.'
'Detective Inspector David Isherwood told the Brisbane Times the remains, discovered yesterday afternoon, could have been at the property from "a month to six months".
"At this point in time, we'd like to hope we can get one from the post-mortem but look, when they're decomposed to a state of skeletal remains, it can quite often take so more time," he said.
"The fact that they've gone to nearly all skeletal remains would indicate they've been there for some time but at this point in time, until the experts actually do an examination, we won't be able to determine that timeframe."'
