Police Chief of Intelligence and Investigations ACP Luke Navela is currently meeting the team of officers who are investigating the discovering of human remains in Natadola.

ACP Navela has confirmed to Fijivillage that he is meeting the team which is helping in the investigation of the case regarding the missing Russian couple.

Police had earlier said that they have requested INTERPOL to get DNA samples from the relatives of the Russian couple.

These samples will be used to trace whether there is a link between the body parts that were found at Natadola beach to the missing Russian couple.

INTERPOL is liaising with relatives of the couple in Russia.

Police have also not ruled out the suggestion that the Russian couple could have left the country.

People are also requested to immediately report to police any citing of items of interest.

Several items were found in the couple’s land cruiser at Natadola Rd, Sigatoka.

This included the woman’s clothes and a passport.

A security guard discovered the first set of body parts at Natadola Beach last Friday.

Russian couple Yuri Shipulin and his wife Natalia have been missing since the 16th of this month.
