A body found by workers clearing a roadside verge may have lain undiscovered for years, say police in Northampton.

Northants Police Detectives are looking into the disappearance of a Nigerian man in 2013, but have not yet identified the remains.

Thirty-two-year-old Adeyemi Olugbuyi went missing after reportedly having an altercation in the Thorplands area of Northampton.

Police said he was also known as ‘Baz’ or ‘Big Man’ and has not contacted friends or family since 13 September 2013.

The body was found on Tuesday afternoon in bushes on Billing Brook Road.
Police are asking anyone with any information to contact them on 101, or contact the Crimestoppers service anonymously.
