A grisly discovery in Cunupia yesterday afternoon, as two dismembered bodies were found dumped in a shallow river off Mon Plaisir Road.

Authorities were alerted to the scene of the chilling crime after a passerby, who was reportedly picking flowers in preparation for Divali, spotted a human leg.

When police arrived, they discovered that it was not one but two bodies that were dumped.

The remains, including two decapitated heads, were found in a black plastic bag.

Due to the nature of the murder, determining identities will take some time, however homicide investigators have confirmed the victims were two men.

Investigators will look at the missing persons list to help them make identifications.
