In 2001, a young boy was playing at a reserve on Meredith Crescent in St Helen’s Park in Sydney’s south west, with a group of children when he came across a human skull.
Detectives went to the site and ended up digging up almost an entire skeleton.
They also found a gold bracelet, a wristwatch, cigar tin, lighter, belt buckle and belt, men’s clothing and shoes, and spent .22 calibre casings, as well as food tins and glass bottles.
The date, place and cause of death were unknown.
Further investigations, and the help of University of Waikato’s Radiocarbon Dating Laboratory in New Zealand, determined the man actually died between 1980 and 1985.
[...] DNA tests suggest the man most likely had dark brown or black hair, brown eyes and a mixed ancestry of South Asian and Middle Eastern.
The man is described as 166-174cm tall with a muscular build.
