Residents of Sungsang village in Banyuasin regency, South Sumatra, were shocked by the discovery of a mutilated body of a local fisherman in a river on Sunday, with many suspecting he was attacked by a crocodile.

The body - which was found cut in half in Bangke River - has been identified as that of Sidik Kamseno, a 40-year-old resident of neighbouring Pagar Bulan village.
