SINGAPORE — Two foreigners, a man and a woman, were found dead at a Geylang hotel last night.
The police said they received a call at around 7.45pm, requesting assistance at Hotel 81 Palace along Lorong 16 Geylang. Upon arrival, they found a 31-year-old man and a 29-year-old woman motionless in a room at the hotel. TODAY understands both are work-permit holders. The man is believed to be from India and the woman from Indonesia.
It is believed that the woman had visible wounds on her body and there were blood stains in several areas, including the bathroom. Both were pronounced dead at the scene.
When TODAY arrived at the hotel, police officers could be seen reviewing the closed-circuit television footage at the lobby. The hotel manager declined to comment.
