A WOMAN's naked body was discovered in a room inside a posh condominium under construction along Queensway yesterday morning.
The woman, believed to be in her 20s, was apparently naked and bloodied.
A foreign worker who had gone to work on the third-storey unit of Viz@Holland and found the body. He alerted his supervisors, who called the police at about 10.45am.
Police have classified the case as murder. No arrests have been made. This is the second murder case within a week.
After Sunday's grisly discovery, police ? including the elite Special Operations Command (SOC) ? cordoned off the entire construction site.
Workers at the site, believed to number more than 100, were not allowed to leave until after 8pm last night.
Most refused to comment, but two of them claimed the police took swabs, photographs and checked all their work permits.
The workers, mostly from China, India and Bangladesh, even had to be escorted when they went to use the portable toilets at the site. Some of the foreign workers live on-site.
It is not known if the murder happened at the site or if the body was taken there. A security firm has a guard there both in the day and at night. It declined comment.
Viz@Holland, which will have one-bedroom units to penthouses, is being built on the former Holland View site.
The 165-unit freehold development, just a 10-minute stroll from Holland Village, was launched in end-2005.
