The skeletal remains of a man wearing a suit have been found in south-east London, the Metropolitan Police said.
Officers believe the body, which was found in Lovelinch Close in Peckham on Wednesday, had been placed there sometime in the last week.The victim is a 5ft tall white man and his death is currently being treated as unexplained by the Met. The body was found outside in the close.
The death of the man is "not linked to the recent disorder", police said.
A Met spokesman said: "We believe that the skeletal remains were placed sometime between 2pm on Friday 5 August and the early hours of 10 August.
"The remains are of a white male, believed to be five feet tall. He was wearing a suit."
A post-mortem examination will take place later on the unidentified man.
