The body found on a roadside near Griffith last week is yet to be formally identified but police believe it is that of an Indian man, an ABC report said.

Australian officers are in touch with the man's family in India and the Indian Consulate to help with identification.

Detectives from State Crime Command will on Tuesday help local officers in a search of the Willbriggie area where the body was found as part of the investigation into his death.
