AN unidentified body of a woman was found lying face down in a ravine at Km14 in Jalan Lama Bukit Putus, Seremban, this morning. 

Seremban district police chief Nanda Maarof said police received a report about the discovery at about 11.15am lodged by Ulu Bendul Forestry Department office personnel. 

He said the department informed the police that a man in his 50s found the body while jogging and taking photos of the area, adding that the staff then followed the man to the location and saw the body in a ravine under a bridge. 

“Following that, the police along with the forensics team and K9 unit of the Negri Sembilan contingent police headquarters were deployed to the scene. The K9 unit did not find any traces that could assist in the investigation,” he said in a statement today.

Nanda said the victim was 1.39m tall, wearing black track pants and a T-shirt and was not wearing any jewellery and had short, unpainted nails, adding that the body was sent to Tuanku Jaafar Hospital for post-mortem examinations.

He also urged those whose family members have gone missing to lodge a report to assist in the investigation. – Bernama, March 20, 2022.
