*Beware of leaks!

*Cracks, leaks and what else?

Suspecting it was blood, she told her son-in-law to contact the cops.

The police said they were alerted to an incident at Block 440 Tampines Street 43 at 8.34am and classified the case as unnatural death.

A neighbour said the man residing in the flat was not seen for many days, but he did not find it unusual as the man mostly kept to himself and only returned home later in the day.

Singaporean police are currently investigating the case.
