NSW detectives have released pictures of the last known movements of a man they believe was murdered earlier this month.
South Coogee man Peter McCarthy, 77, was found dead in a home on Elphinstone Road on Sunday December 20.
Local police officers were called to the apartment, and found the body had injuries deemed to be suspicious.
Over the following days, state detectives from the homicide squad took over the case and opened a strike force named Airy.
A post mortem examination was ordered which found the man died from “severe head and facial injuries”, police said.
The man has now been publicly identified as Mr McCarthy, and police have released CCTV pictures of his last known movements before his untimely death, hoping anyone who saw him will be able to provide crucial information.
Mr McCarthy was caught on surveillance cameras inside the York Hotel in Sydney’s central business district four days before he was found dead.
The pictures, captured between 12.30pm and 2.30pm on Wednesday, December 16, show Mr McCarthy near the entrance of the pub, wearing a striped rugby-style shirt and a satchel slung over his shoulder.
In one of the pictures, Mr McCarthy is seen facing an screen as daylight flows from an open door nearby.
Detectives would like to speak to anyone who has information that may be of use to them.
