The body of an 83-year-old man was found in Punggol River on Wednesday morning.
According to The Straits Times, Lim Ong Sai was found floating in Punggol River at Sengkang West at 7am and was fully dressed with his valuables intact.
Police said they received a call requesting for assistance at about 7.10am. The elderly man was pronounced dead at 8.35am.
Shin Min Daily News reported that the man had met friends at a nearby coffee shop on Tuesday night but did not return home by 2am. His sons started to worry and went out to look for him.
The police has classified this case as unnatural death and investigations are ongoing.
This is the second body found floating in Singapore's waterways this week.
On Monday, a badly decomposed lower body of a man was found in Bedok Reservoir. The lower body is believed to be 23-year-old Lin Xiao, a China national working in Singapore.
The mother of Lin, Hu Ping Zhu, has confirmed that the half-corpse is indeed her son when the keys found in the corpse's jeans pocket matched their house's locks. Hu also recognised the black Puma belt and faded jeans that was on Lin's lower body.
Meanwhile, the police are carrying out DNA tests on the body to determine its identity.

A series of murder is taking place. Hopefully the Singapore Police will act on it and nail the murderers. Hope those police drama series is for real instead of using it as a recruitment advertisement

May those who passed rest in peace. May those who done the deeds be found.ReplyAngry Birdy 5 minutes ago Report Abuse
Why doesn't the Gahmen understand that people need personal space? Importing and packing so many FTs to Sillypore does not solve problems but cause more problems. Solve 1 problem but create another 3, just like housing issues.Reply
