[ad_1]

Police are investigating the suspicious death of a woman who was found inside a bin in regional Victoria.

The gruesome discovery was made just after midday on Saturday at Buckley, about 37km west of Geelong.

Officers located the deceased woman on Mount Pollock Rd near Buckley School Rd and investigators are treating her death as suspicious.

Two crime scenes have now been established, one at Mount Pollock Rd and a second at a residential address in Mirka Wat in Point Cook in southwestern Melbourne. The sites are about 82km apart.

A police spokesman confirmed the line of investigation at the second scene was linked to the deceased woman.

Mount Pollock Rd, which connects to Princes Highway, was closed off to traffic at 12.30pm.

Photos from the Mount Pollock Rd scene show a heavy police presence, including a helicopter and members of Victorian Police’s VIPER Taskforce.

“The VIPER Taskforce is a statewide capability that provides a tactical and investigative response to serious and organised crime, including youth gangs and their networks,” Victoria Police states.

“It delivers a multifaceted intelligence-led response that supports Regional and Specialist Commands.”

Mount Pollock Rd is a gravel stretch with farmland on either side.

No arrests have been made.
