Another body found at bedok reservoir

"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."
