Two neighbours' bodies found at Bishan block
THE body of a woman suffering from depression was found barely a metre away from that of her 15th floor neighbour at the foot of their Bishan St 13 block on Monday.
Administrative assistant Ng Sock Luan, 48, and retiree Lau Fong Kien, 55, who lived on the 11th and 15th floor respectively, were long-time residents of the block but did not know each other.
A member of the public had alerted police at about 11.20am about the two bodies.
Both were pronounced dead at the scene when paramedics arrived shortly later. Some medication and food items were discovered next to Ms Lau's body.
It is believed that they died around the same time.
The two women had very different personalities, relatives told The Straits Times, adding that Madam Ng could have fallen on Ms Lau.
