Police have named the man whose body was found dumped in a refuse container in Brentford.

The man, who was discovered at a waste depot on Transport Avenue on Thursday (February 19) afternoon has been formally identified as 47-year-old Marek Cuprys of no fixed address.

Police have confirmed that the man was originally from Poland.

A post-mortem took place at Fulham Mortuary on Friday (February 20) and showed Mr Cuprys died as a result of crush injuries. His death is still being treated as unexplained.

Workers at the dump told getwestlondon that colleagues had made the grisly discovery while trying to close a refuse container on its way out of the depot, probably headed to a landfill site.

Officers from Hounslow are still investigating.
