Two people have been charged after Southland man Dale Watene's body was found in Otautau earlier this year.
Mr Watene, 40, went missing from Otautau in April, more than a month before his body was found in the Longwood Forestry block.
Today, police announced two people have been charged in relation to his death.
A 30-year-old woman has been charged with murder, while a 23-year-old man has been charged with accessory after the fact to murder.
Police say they're not looking for anyone else in relation to Mr Watene's death.
