AKARTA: Residents of Rawa Lele subdistrict in Ciputat, Banten, were shocked on Monday morning by the discovery of the body of an unidentified man lying alongside the Tanah Abang–Serpong railway track near the Angke River.
Ciputat Police detective chief Adj. Comr. Syamsudin said a local resident by the name of Hamdani found the body.
“Neighbors, who heard Hamdani shouting, rushed to the site and he then reported the discovery of the body to police,” he said.
Officers who took the body to the Tangerang General Hospital morgue found signs of violence that indicated that the man had been murdered.
“The body has several wounds, but we suspect these happened after the man fell from a moving train,” he said.
He said the man, estimated to be 35 years old, was 1.7 meters high and chubby, had short hair and dark skin and was wearing yellow shorts and a blue sweater.
