GARDAÍ HAVE COMMISSIONED a facial reconstruction of the man whose body was found near Barna in Galway last year.

The man was found in Rusheen Woods in September last year and his death is not thought to be suspicious.

To date despite an extensive Garda Investigation this male remains unidentified. A facial reconstruction image has been created by Dundee University to assist the investigation.

Gardaí say the man is:

• Between 30 and 40 years of age
• Approximately 6 foot tall
• With black hair
• Of broad/strong build

He was wearing:

• A gold bracelet watch (Caravelle by Bulova)
• A black leather jacket
• Blue jeans
• White and blue ‘Athletech’ runners.
• A black belt with metal flower design studs across its length with a silver colour buckle.

Anyone who can assist in identifying him is asked to contact Salthill Garda Station on 091 514720, the Garda Confidential Telephone Line 1800 666 111 or any garda station.
