Shah Alam police chief Iqbal Ibrahim said the body was found in a single-storey house at Lorong Lembah Dua in Kampung Padang Jawa, Klang, after a member of the public called the police at about 6.10pm.

He said the victim was a Malaysian, aged 24, and there were no signs of any injury or that he was involved in a struggle before his death.

“We suspect that the deceased was electrocuted when using his handphone while it was being charged in his flooded home,” he said in a statement.

A post-mortem will be conducted tomorrow morning.

Earlier today, the body of a 27-year-old Sri Lankan national was found at a site used to store construction material in Section 25, Shah Alam. He was also believed to have been electrocuted.

A dog was found dead nearby and was also believed to have died from electrocution.
