The body of a man was discovered in Tenerife last night (Sunday), at the bottom of a ravine near the area of La Florida located in the municipality of La Orotava.
The Local Police from La Orotava, along with the Guardia Civil and volunteers from the Civil Protection Group, were present at the scene and are investigating whether the man fell into the ravine or whether he committed suicide.
Investigators are exploring connections with any missing person reports in the area as local communities have reported a few individuals missing in recent months, so the authorities are working diligently to establish whether the body could belong to any of these missing persons.
The body has been taken to the Institute of Legal Medicine for an autopsy to determine the precise cause of death and for official identification.
