Police: Tracing movements of missing Briton led to Bangsar body discovery
KUALA LUMPUR: A police search for a missing Briton at a partially under construction condominium along Lorong Maarof in Bangsar led to the discovery of decomposed body there. Brickfields police chief Assistant Commissioner Ku Mashariman Ku Mahmood confirmed that police had traced the movements of the missing man — Jordan Johnson-Doyle — to the condominium about 4pm today. "We then launched a search of the entire building with a team comprising at least 30 policemen. "At around 5pm, a body was discovered in a partially submerged elevator shaft in a part of the building that was still under construction," he told reporters at the scene today. He said, however, it was too early to determine the identity of the body. Ku Mashariman said further action would be taken at the University Malaya Medical Centre pathology unit to identify the body as well as the cause of death.
