Police have charged two men with murder as part of Operation Whisky Realm, established to investigate the homicide of a man whose remains were found on the Sunshine Coast yesterday.

The 25-year-old man was initially reported missing on June 4, after he was last seen at a Rupert Crescent, Morayfield, address on May 28.
