Kasasira urges anyone that has a missing person in the areas of Greater Masaka, Rwizi region, and areas of Greater Bushenyi contact the Central Police Station Mbarara or visit the Mortuary to identify the body.
He said since then police have been investigating the circumstances under which the person was killed but now they have hit a dead end with investigations since no one has come out to claim or report a missing person.
The body discovered one week ago now is lying in Mbarara regional referral hospital mortuary.
Kasasira, without specifying when, said that if the body is unclaimed police will bury it in the government cemetery.
