A man’s torso has been found in Sydney bushland after locals reported an “odour” coming from a dumped sofa.
Police were called to the quiet Avian Crs in Lane Cove North about 2.30pm on Wednesday and located the remains shoved inside the couch.
The furniture was found about 5m into rugged bush in Mowbray Park and had been dumped sometime over the past two days.
Initial forensic investigations identified the torso as being that of an adult man, but the location of his other body parts and his identity remains undetermined.
Superintendent Paul Devaney described the scene as “confronting” to the first responding officers.
“We wrap support around those officers,” he told reporters on Thursday.
Devaney said police are now working to identify the man to bring closure to his loved ones.
“I’m more concerned for the relatives and the family of the victim,” he said.
“That’s why we’re working around the clock to try and identify this person to inform them of the death of their loved one.”
