"A body was found floating in Bedok Reservoir early Tuesday morning. This is the fifth body found at the reservoir in the last five months.
Pilot Jeffrey Nanthakumar, 31, was taking a morning jog when he saw something red floating in the waters at around 7:10am. He initially thought that it was a life jacket, but upon closer inspection, discovered it to be a body in a red top floating face down.
"I was jogging in the morning, and saw some red-coloured thing floating two metres from the bank. I decided to go closer and saw the rough figure of a body floating face down," he said.
"I had no phone, so I borrowed one from an elderly lady to call the police," added Jeffrey, who noted that there were a few other people with him at the scene, and that he probably wasn't the first to notify the police.
An SCDF spokesman said that the body belonged to a Chinese female, whom police believed was in her late 50s.
Paramedics, who arrived on the scene at 7:20am, pronounced the woman dead.
The area of the discovery, directly opposite block 717, was also cordoned off by the police. The body was removed at around 10:30am."
