A man aged in his 30s died after falling from a banking complex in Hong Kong's Central this morning.
The man, wearing a business suit, was found lying unconscious on an elevated platform by security guards at the Citibank Plaza at around 7.30am.
He was certified dead by ambulancemen called to the scene. No identity documents were found on him.
Police believe the man fell from either Citibank Tower or ICBC Tower in the complex. Reports say he was an employee of a tenant in one of the buildings.
An ICBC spokeswoman said she learned about the incident from news reports but could not immediately confirm if the man was an employee or not.
"The bank is only one of the tenants and we have no further information at this moment," she said.
A spokesman for Citibank said the man did not fall from Citibank Tower.
Citibank Tower has 50 storeys while ICBC Tower has 37. Their tenants are mainly multinational banking and financial services companies.
Police officers put a green tent over the body and cordoned off part of the scene for further investigation.

A 31-year-old man jumped to his death from a bank tower in Hong Kong's Central this morning after an argument with his girlfriend, according to a police source.
