A Northern Territory coroner has slammed police for failing to properly investigate the death of an 8-year-old Aboriginal boy whose weighed-down body was found in a shallow waterhole.
NT Coroner Greg Cavanagh said investigating police quickly concluded that the death was not suspicious.
He has now referred the case to the Director of Public Prosecutions after finding that a crime had been committed.
