TANGKAK, MALAYSIA - A woman was found dead in her double-storey Taman Tangkak Jaya home by her daughter.

Lee Kim Fong, 67, who lived alone, was found lying outside a bathroom near the kitchen at 8am yesterday by her daughter who rushed from Tangkak town after some neighbours told her they had not seen her mother for two days. Her house had been ransacked.

Neighbours said they suspected something amiss when they did not see Lee jogging in the morning as the woman jogged at 5am everyday.

One neighbour said some of them went to Lee's house and called out for her from the main gate but there was no answer although the front door was ajar and the lights inside were switched on.

"We suspected something bad had happened to our friend and someone called her daughter," she said.
