The man, found by a walker, was discovered in the Claerwen Reservoir in mid-Wales. Despite extensive forensic tests and searches, his identity remains unknown, with no evidence of personal belongings or an abandoned car found in the vicinity.
The man is believed to have been in the reservoir for up to 12 weeks and was found severely decomposed. Investigators have described the circumstances surrounding his death as “highly unusual,” as no clothing or means of transportation were discovered.
