Police appeal for help after discovery of human remains

Gympie detectives have launched a public appeal as part of an investigation into the discovery of human remains in Kybong last month.

Investigations commenced on October 11 after a member of the public located the skeletal remains in bushland off Keefton Road.

Detectives believe the remains belong to one person who may have died a considerable time ago.

The person, whose gender is yet to be determined, had a metal implant in their leg.

Investigators are seeking information to help identify the person and are appealing for anyone who may have information to come forward.

Items of clothing including a shirt, pants and shoes were found during searches of the surrounding area.

At this stage of the investigation, the cause of death remains unknown.

Anyone with information that may relate to the investigation is encouraged contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.
