“Re-appeal to identify deceased man - Pyrmont​

Friday, 14 June 2024 12:06:21 AM

Police are re-appealing for public assistance to identify a man who died in 2014.

About 7:35am on Thursday 28 August 2014, officers attached to Sydney City Police Area Command were called to the northern footpath on Refinery Drive, Pyrmont where they located the body of the man outside a building.

While the man’s death was not treated as suspicious, police have not been able to formally identify the man or locate any family or friends.

As police continue their inquiries into the identity of the man, who is only known as ‘Andy’, they have re-released images of him, and his two distinctive tattoos.

One of the tattoos, which was located on the man’s left shoulder, is depicted in the images as a demon, with the words ‘Death to the world’ and ‘Search and destroy’ across it.

The second tattoo is the word ‘Hate’ and was located across his fingers.

Anyone with information into the man’s identity is urged to call Sydney City Police Station or Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

Anyone with information about this incident is urged to contact Crime Stoppers: 1800 333 000 or https://nsw.crimestoppers.com.au. Information is treated in strict confidence. The public is reminded not to report information via NSW Police social media pages”.
