On Nov 26, workers found a body floating in the waters around Marina Bay at 8am. This case comes shortly after a badly decomposed body was found in Pandan Reservoir.
Lianhe Wanbao reported that the body in Marina Bay was of an ethnic Chinese man in his 70s. He was found wearing a short-sleeved collared shirt and beige trousers.
According to the evening paper, the man is believed to have been dead for sometime as his body was cold and stiff when recovered by the police.
It has been classified as an unnatural death, and police are still verifying his identity with investigations still ongoing.

Well observed indeed. Unfortunately, there are lots of such presumptuous hopers & assumers around. I just shared a James Baldwin quote over at the Pandan Reservoir thread:
"There are so many ways of being despicable it quite makes one’s head spin. But the way to be really despicable is to be contemptuous of other people’s pain.
People who treat other people as less than human must not be surprised when the bread they have cast on the waters comes floating back to them, poisoned."
