Family members of 54-year-old Brazilian electrician, Odair Bezerra Lins, who went missing in June, are repeating calls for local law enforcement to give them information relating to his case.
Lins has been missing for more than 100 days, after last reporting for work at an OAS Construtora site in South Trinidad on June 8.
Shortly after Lins' disappearance, the body of a man was found in a forest in South Trinidad and transferred to the Forensic Science Centre in St James.
In an interview, forensic pathologist Valery Alexandrov recalled that Lins' wife was supposed to come to T&T to view the body but could not remember if she actually did.
"I remember it because there was a lot of interest but I can't say if she came," he said.
According to Brazilian news agency Globo, DNA samples had been sent by the family more than ten weeks ago but had not been processed locally.
Lins' wife, Marcia Aparecida Martins Lopes, said she had no information on the progress of investigations into the case.
The Embassy of Brazil in Port-of-Spain has made requests to both the Forensic Science Centre and the T&T Police Service to identify the body.
According to Globo, Lins' family learned of the case and sought the help of Civil Police Solteira (SP) on June 12.
The next day, relatives reported the matter to the Federal Police in Jales.
Lins had spent more than a year in Trinidad providing maintenance of heavy machinery in the construction of the Solomon Hochoy Highway extension project.
He visited Brazil every four months.
The family had no news of Lins for two days until June 10 when company representatives contacted his wife to say that the truck he used was found abandoned near a deserted beach with bloodstains.
