Police located remains in bushland on Brooklands Pimpimbudgee Rd at Maidenwell on Wednesday.
While they are yet to be formally identified, officers are in contact with Burow’s family.
The breakthrough came after a Crime Stoppers report of a fire sighted in the Blackbutt area about 4am on August 26.
Two men have been charged with torture in connection to the incident last Thursday.
Police allege 26-year-old North Lakes man Billy John Howard and 38-year-old Sippy Downs man Anthony Thomas Perrett tortured Burow between August 20 and 26 at a Lorimer Terrace unit complex in Kelvin Grove.
The court heard mobile phone evidence included photos of Burow being “severely beaten”.
An address on Kokoda Ave in Bli Bli, an hour north of where Burow lives, was declared a crime scene after what police described as Burow’s “out of character” disappearance.
During a search of the property, officers reportedly found a burnt mobile phone, zip ties, burnt alcohol wipes and a handwritten note with the address of Burow’s parents inside a fire pit.
The court was also told of an alleged FaceTime call in which a witness claimed to have seen Burow being beaten with “weapons and instruments”.
Investigators said mobile phone data placed Burow in the company of the accused over several days.
Both men are not facing any charges in relation to his disappearance.
On Monday, police released vision of three seized vehicles linked to the investigation:
- A black 2010 BMW X3 (QLD rego 802NX4)
- A black 2011 Ford Ranger utility (bearing false QLD plates 257LX8)
- A silver 2007 Mitsubishi Outlander wagon (QLD rego 385KU2)
As investigations are continuing, police continue to urge anyone who may have seen the vehicles or captured them on dashcam in the Brisbane, Ipswich, Yarraman, Blackbutt or Sunshine Coast areas between 21 and 26 August to come forward.
Several crime scenes have been declared across southeast Queensland.
According to his LinkedIn profile, Burow was a cyber security manager at Sparta.
He held a degree in IT and business management and had spent his career mostly working in the IT field.
Police are urging anyone with information that may assist the investigation into Burow’s suspicious disappearance to come forward.
