BUKIT MERTAJAM: The nude body of a man believed to be a foreigner was found wrapped in a bedsheet by the roadside of Jalan Perusahaan 2 Bukit Minyak, on Wednesday.
Seberang Perai Tengah Police chief ACP Azman Abd Lah said the body, wrapped in a light purple bedsheet was found on the five-foot way by a man passing the area at 8.45am.
"The head and legs were tied, giving the appearance that the body had been shrouded for burial," he said when contacted.
He said the police did not rule out the possibility that the man might have died elsewhere and the body dumped there.
"There was foam at the mouth," he said.
Azman said no travel documents were found on the body, which was sent to the Seberang Jaya Hospital.
Members of the public with any information to offer could contact the any police station, he said. - Bernama
