SEVEN men arrested on suspicion of murder after a body was discovered in a well in Warlingham on Friday night have been released on bail
A murder probe was launched by the met police after the discovery outside an address in Audley Drive, Warlingham.
Specialist officers, including police divers, were also called to the scene and removed the body from the well.
A post-mortem was due to be carried out today but no other details about the identity of the body have been released.
The investigation is being carried out the Homicide and Major Crime Command, led by Detective Chief Inspector Cliff Lyons.
"This is an unusual case and I would appeal for anybody who has concerns about a missing person, or who believes they may know something about this individual or incident, to call my officers," he said.
"Although I cannot elaborate further at this time, I have reason to believe that this body was placed into the well and we are treating the incident as a murder."
The seven men have been released on bail until late December while the investigation continues.
