Police say the death of a man whose body was found earlier in the week shackled in chains in the sea off northern Greece was most likely the result of suicide.

A coroner's report said the corpse did not show any signs of foul play and that the cause of death was drowning.

Police seeking a toddler missing for 25 years have uncovered several ancient graves during a dig in a field on the Greek island of Kos, where he was last seen, according to reports Thursday.

It is believed that the area may have been an old burial ground.

Police said that the search for Ben Needham will continue despite discovery of the graves which could be 1500 years old.

British media reports said Thursday that investigators on the island of Kos have evidence of decomposition during a dig to find information about Ben Needham, the toddler who went missing on the island in 1991.
