The body of a man found in Wellington Harbour this morning has been removed by police.

It was found at the northern end of the Meridian Building at Queens Wharf.

Reporter Nick Walker is at the scene and said:

"Just a short while ago they had a boat come up where there was a bit of a boat ramp. And it appears that's where the body of a man had been put for a time. They put the body bag onto the boat and it is being taken away. The cordon's here and there are still some police officers on the scene. We don't know how long it will be getting shut off for, but it looks like it's not getting shut down anytime soon."

The body has been taken back to the Maritime Unit and National Dive Squad police building on the wharf.
