TAIPEI (Taiwan News) – According to items found nearby, a man found dead by a
river in Chiayi County Thursday might be a foreign worker, possibly from Indonesia, police said Saturday.
On Thursday, the body was found in a banana garden near the Bazhang Creek (八掌溪) in the township of Shuishang (水上), but no obvious cause of death was found.
While the results of an autopsy and of DNA testing are still expected to provide more clarity in that respect, police Saturday presented several items found nearby in the hope that someone could throw more light on the deceased man’s identity.
No identity documents were found, but the man was about 1.5 meter to 1.55 m tall, with his hair reaching a length of 6 to 10 centimeters, police told the Central News Agency. [FULL STORY]
