A Chinese man whose body was found in Auckland Harbour has been identified by a relative this morning.
The 22-year-old Chinese student, who was found on Saturday, is believed to have drowned, though police are still investigating what led to his death.
Detective Sergeant Scott Hunter said a relative living
in New Zealand had identified the man for police today.
Police will not reveal the student's name until next of kin have been advised in China.
A public appeal was initiated after no missing person reports matching the man's description were filed.
