KUALA LUMPUR: The decomposed body of a woman, believed to have died two to three days ago, was found in a Vista Angkasa Apartment unit along Bukit Kerinchi here.
A security guard said that neighbours last saw the 54-year-old pensioner three days ago on the second floor of the apartment block where she lived.
He alleged that her body was later found by family members who visited the apartment at about 9.45pm on Saturday after failing to hear from her for three days.
"Unable to get a response from her, they contacted the police who had to enter the unit by way of force entry.
"A strong stench filled the air as soon as they broke into the apartment.
"They found her lying lifeless in the bedroom," he added.
Police left the scene around midnight and had sent the body to the Universiti Malaya Medical Centre for an autopsy.
