Stench leads to the discovery of woman’s body

THE body of a woman was found outside a flat in Farlim, Penang, more than three days after her death, China Press reported.

Ong Siew Kiok, 49, is believed to have fallen to her death from the flat.

A neighbour, who was trying to find the source of a stench, discovered her body in a patio that was not visible to passersby.

Police circulated photos of the deceased hoping residents could identify her but no one seemed to know her. She came from Relau in Bayan Lepas, according to the address on her MyKad.
