Days after American John Allen Chau was killed by a remote tribe on an island in the Indian Ocean, officials say they’re still struggling to recover his body.

Last week, Chau was slain by North Sentinel islanders who apparently shot him with arrows before burying his body on the beach, according to The Associated Press. Officials don’t travel to the North Sentinel islands, as the tribesmen typically attack outsiders.
