POLICE have identified the man whose body was found in a Warlingham well as Damian Chlywka.
Officers say they are now satisfied the body is that of the 32-year-old Polish man, who came to the UK in 2008 and has lived in at least two Croydon addresses.
The discovery was made at a house in Audley Drive on November 15 by a New Addington gardener.
Police have made two more arrests on suspicion of murder. A 41-year-old man and a 33-year-old man were arrested yesterday and remain in custody.
Officers initially arrested seven men, aged between 21 and 27, on suspicion of murder. They were interviewed and released on bail until late December.
Mr Chlywka's body was bound before being placed in the well and it is believed he had been there for around two years.
Officer said his injuries were consistent with an assault but a post-mortem did not provide a cause of death and further tests are being conducted.
Detective Chief Inspector Cliff Lyons, who is leading the investigation, said: "Damian had lived at various addresses across London including two known to be in the Croydon area. At one point he had lived at 11A Audley Drive.
"Our focus now is to build up a fuller picture of Damian's life in the UK.
"We have given the difficult and heartbreaking news to his family who are distraught that this has happened to their loved one.
"I am appealing to anyone who knew or previously worked with him to contact the police and help us to piece together a picture of Damian's life and how it came to end in these distressing circumstances."
