A couple was found dead in a car at a multi-storey carpark in Choa Chu Kang on Saturday night.

Police received a call at about 9.45pm and found two bodies - one on top of the other - in the front passenger seat, which was inclined.

19-year old Linda Gian, an administration officer, was clad in a polo T-shirt and shorts.

The man is 33-year old Jerome Peck, who worked as a logistics officer in the same company.

The carpark at Block 462A is believed to be a lovers' hangout, and the car's engine was turned off when the bodies were found.

There were no signs of visible injury on both bodies and police have ruled out murder.

The case has been classified as unnatural death and police are investigating.

Cleaner, 70, Dies After Being Found Dazed At Roadside

THOUGH she was 70 years old, she still turned up for work at 5.30am every day.

But last Sunday, no one noticed that Madam Lie A Po was missing until a security guard saw her 1 1/2 hours later. She was leaning against a tree along Upper East Coast Road, about 25m from the entrance of Eastern Lagoon II, the condominium complex where she worked as a cleaner.

She was looking dazed but had a slight smile on her face and a red mark on her forehead.

She also had slight injuries on her arms and elbows.

The security guard alerted the supervisor who called for an ambulance.

Madam Lie was taken to Changi General Hospital, but she died there at about 1.20pm, said her younger daughter, Ms Mary Lim.

Earlier, Madam Lie's elder daughter, Madam Doreen Lim, 48, had gone to her workplace to visit her.

She said: 'I was shocked when they told me she had been sent to hospital, and contacted my brothers and sister.'

Family members are unsure if she was the victim of a hit-and-run accident.

But her handbag, which she used to carry to work, is missing, said Madam Lim.

She described her mother, who had been working as a cleaner for 10 years, as healthy and hardworking.

'She kept herself busy at home where she did household chores after returning from work in the late afternoons and never went out.'

Madam Lie, who lived with her youngest son at Block 95 Bedok North Avenue 4, would leave for work before 5am daily.

The injuries she suffered could have been due to a fall and police are investigating the case as unnatural death.

'She was incoherent when attended to by ambulance officers and police were unable to speak to her before she went in for treatment,' said spokesman Victor Keong.

Witnesses can call 1800-255-0000.
