A decomposing body of an unidentified man was found early this morning in an uncompleted building at Mile 11, New Weija.
Residents stumbled upon the lifeless body in attempts to trace a strong odour that had taken over the community.
The man believed to be in his thirties was discovered in a prone position fully clothed in shirt and trousers, with a pair of slippers lying nearby.
Judging from the situation, residents suspect he took shelter in the uncompleted building and unfortunately succumbed.
Despite residents alerting the local police immediately, the body remains unattended for hours.
Police allegedly cited the unavailability of a vehicle as the reason for the delay in retrieving the body, causing frustration among locals.
