Homicide detectives are re-appealing for information as the investigation into a suspicious death in regional NSW continues.
Police were called to Muscle Creek in Muswellbrook on March 30 last year after reports of a man’s body in the water.
The man was identified as 58-year-old Malcolm Bridge.
Bridge had suffered injuries to his face and hands.
Although he was found in a creek, there was no evidence to suggest he had drowned.
NSW Police have not been able to identify the full circumstances surrounding the death, and are asking the public for help.
“We are hoping this appeal might spark the memory of someone who might have spoken to Malcolm or seen him in the period before his death,” Detective Chief Inspector Rod Blackman said.
“The past 18 months have been extremely challenging for Malcolm’s family and it’s time for those with information to come forward.”
Bridge’s sister Kathleen Howard says her family needs closure.
“There are people out there that know what happened to Malcolm, and his last moments,” Howard said.
“We are asking anybody that knows anything – doesn’t matter whether it’s small – to please go and see the Muswellbrook police.”
Anyone with information is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.
