Asiaone:
Bedok Reservoir cursed?
If found, the body will be the fourth recovered in four
months.
On June 20, a highly-decomposed partial corpse was found in
the reservoir. The body was identified as Chinese national Lin
Xiao, 23, who had gone missing in April.
On Sep 22, the bodies of Tan Sze Sze, 32, and her
three-year-old son, Jerald Chin Le Hui, were found floating in
Bedok Reservoir.
According to media reports, the stress of her broken marriage
and fear of losing the custody battle for her son had
pushed Madam Tan over the edge. The two
bodies, dressed in red, were found locked in embrace.
Reporters spoke to a resident Mr Liao, 55, who stays nearby
and jogs at the reservoir park twice a week with his wife.
When Mr Liao saw police and civil defence officers gathered at
the reservoir, he wondered if there had been another drowning.
"Is the reservoir cursed?" he wondered, "Why are there so many
incidents lately?"
Another resident Ms He, 38, a teacher, told reporters
that fewer people are exercising at the reservoir now and
are avoiding the park, especially in the evenings.
