A bushwalker has discovered human skeletal remains while hiking along Darwin’s outskirts.
Northern Territory police have established a crime scene near Lee Point Beach, about 20 kilometres north of the CBD.
The remains were discovered on Wednesday and a large number of bones, including a skull, have been recovered.
‘The scene has been painstakingly processed with the use of medical experts, including a forensic pathologist,’ Detective Acting Superintendent Karl Day said on Friday.
‘Further analysis will be undertaken by forensic specialists and until that time we cannot expand further.’
