Northern Territory police believe a man wanted over the decapitation murder of a man in NSW is still hiding out on the outskirts of Darwin.
As the hunt for Jonathon Stenberg, 46, enters its fourth day in the Northern Territory, Senior Sergeant Greg Pusterla says police have received lots of
phone calls regarding suspicious activity in the 45sq km area in Darwin's outer suburbs where they believe him to be.
"Acting on intelligence we are confident that the area where resources are currently concentrated are appropriate to maximise the likelihood of locating Mr Stenberg," Snr Sgt Pusterla told ABC Radio.
He said police were following up several lines of inquiry.
A large number of police continue to search for Stenberg, with dogs and a helicopter with thermal imaging equipment on board part of the efforts.
