Police has found an unidentified body of a woman in Adelaide Park Lands on Sunday morning. Eastern Adelaide police are treating the death as suspicious.

The body was discovered just before 8 a.m. on Sunday by a dog walker in the South Parklands, near Sir Lewis Cohen Avenue. The crime scene is now being investigated by Adelaide CIB and other investigators, ABC reports. Police is also checking with neighbours to find clues about the dead woman.

Though the body has now been removed from the park, the road remains blocked to traffic. Charmaine Peters, from SA Police told the website that they are trying their best to identify the woman. "It will be a priority for us to find out who she is, so we could let them know and afford her the dignity that she requires and needs," she said.

Adelaide CIB and Crime Scene Investigators believe that the woman could be in her 30s. The cause of death is still unknown.

"The pathologist has been down, at this stage it is an unexplained death," Peters said, adding that they are also conducting a number of inquiries with refuge homes and sobering up centres. "Whether she is from one of those areas, we're checking our missing persons database to see if it's someone missing for a while."

Police has sent the body for post-mortem examination to the State Forensic Science Centre. The post-mortem is likely to be conducted on Sunday afternoon. This will help the police to determine a cause and time of death.

Police are asking anyone with information to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.
