A BODY stuffed in a trolley bag was found floating in the waters off a construction site at Resorts World Sentosa (RWS) yesterday morning .
Two foreign workers, a Myanmar national and an Indian, spotted the bag and took it ashore. They then alerted their supervisor, who called the police upon making the grisly discovery.
The decomposed male body was clothed but carried no identification, said the police, who received the call at about 8.40am. The man was pronounced dead by paramedics at 9.15am.
The construction site is situated behind Underwater World, near a coastal walkway facing HarbourFront Centre.
RWS main contractor Sembawang Engineers and Constructors has been building two hotels, a spa and maritime museum there since 2009.
In a separate incident at RWS yesterday, an American stuntwoman in her 20s dislocated her right knee during a live performance at Universal Studios Singapore. She was part of the cast of a show at WaterWorld and was sliding down a pole when she landed badly. She was taken to the Singapore General Hospital for treatment.

THE man, whose body was found stuffed in a trolley bag floating in the waters off Sentosa on Saturday morning, is believed to have been killed in an apartment in The Caribbean - an up-market condominium at Keppel Bay Drive.
However, many of the other details surrounding the killing of Mr Wong Teck Siong, 28, are still shrouded in secrecy. The ex-dancer, also known as Mr Huang Dexiong, is said to have been murdered between April 1 and 16 this year in a fifth-floor unit at the condominium.
These were the details that surfaced when Teo Boon Leng, 44, was charged with his murder of the younger man in a district court on Monday. District Judge Lim Tse Haw granted the prosecution's request for Teo to be remanded for a week at the Central Police Division and also allowed officers to take the businessman out to assist in the investigations.
In the dock, Teo, who was manacled hand and foot, looked on without expression during the five-minute hearing.
The stout, 1.7m-tall man with a broad craggy face, was dressed in a black Polo T-shirt and dark blue dungarees and slippers. Before he was led away by police officers, he smiled briefly at the two women in the public gallery. They declined comment when approached by reporters after the hearing.
