Police are continuing to appeal for information to help identify the body of a person who was found in a Powys reservoir in a wetsuit last month.
Officers attended Claerwen Reservoir in the Elan Valley on Friday, October 18.
A member of the public had called the police after seeing a body in the water shortly before 8:30am.
Detective Inspector Anthea Ponting, Senior Investigating Officer said: “I would like to thank everyone who came forward with information following our first appeal.
“Following a post-mortem, I can confirm that the body is a man, aged between 30 and 60 years old. He is approximately 6 feet tall and was wearing a Zone 3 Agile wetsuit. It is estimated that he could have been dead for between three and twelve weeks.
“If you think this the new information could relate to someone you may know please speak to police.
“We would still like to hear from anyone who has visited the Claerwen Reservoir, or the surrounding area, since the beginning of July, and haven’t spoken to police yet about any unattended personal property such as bags, clothes, shoes, or anything else that stood out.”
“We’d like to hear from you whether you saw something that caught your attention and left it there, or you removed it from the area,” added DI Ponting.
Anyone with information which could help the investigation is asked to contact police either:
