DEPUTY Commissioner of Police (DCP) Junior Benjamin says there is no fixed timeline for how long the police will keep the decomposing remains of two unidentified men found along the north-east coast last week.

One body was discovered washed ashore in Cumana, Toco, on September 5. The other was found at Balandra Beach on September 7.

There has been widespread speculation that the bodies could be linked to the 11 people reportedly killed in a US strike on a Venezuelan vessel allegedly carrying drugs destined for Trinidad and Tobago.
