Sentul district police chief Beh Eng Lai said one of the condominium management staff found the girl’s body on the corridor of the eighth floor.

He said police received information about the incident at 2.41 pm.

“Police conducted an investigation at the scene and found that the victim had been left unsupervised at home by her father. She was locked in, as he had gone out to the shop.

“When the victim’s father returned home he could not find his daughter anywhere and then asked the management staff to help find her,” he said in a statement today.

He said investigations found that the window in the victim’s room was open with a chair by the side.

The case has been classified as sudden death, he added.
