RCMP have confirmed that a body found in the woods of Geraldton is a man who was facing charges of alleged confinement of a 16-year-old Nova Scotia boy.
Police say Wayne Cunningham's body was found near Long Lac at 7:30 p.m. on Wednesday.
A news release says OPP found the remains of the 31-year-old near a 2003 Hyundai Elantra he was believed to have travelled in.
Cunningham had faced charges of sexual assault and forcible confinement after a boy alleged he was held captive by two men at a home last month.
Police say the cause of death is under investigation, but foul play is not suspected.
