The story of a woman found in the bathroom under a pile of cement went viral last week when the body was discovered at about 10.58pm on Sunday (Dec 3) by a foreign man who was assigned to conduct repairs on the home.The house owner hired foreign workers to fix the house’s roof last month but they informed the owner that there was a body in the water tub encased in cement. The owner then alerted the police.News reports said the owner had leased the house to two foreign individuals from August 2019 to October 2021.Before renting, he noticed a section of the bathroom wall was cemented. Inquiring about it, the tenants claimed water from decaying rats in the wall leaked into the tub, leading them to cement and conceal it.Without suspicion, he subsequently rented it to new tenants. – Dec 9, 2023Main photo credit: The Star
