Police there were no suspicious circumstances about
the death, but the exact cause will only be known after an autopsy.

the 39-year-old Filipina with the initials L.A.M. was found by a Chinese
cleaning lady who was given keys to the flat by the male tenant who had gone
out of town.

The 61-year-old woman called the police at 3:31pm
that day, and ambulancemen who responded to the call declared the victim dead
on site.
The spokesman said he had no information as to why the
Filipina whose employer lives in Mid-Levels, was in the Yau Ma Tei flat at the time.
Meanwhile, the employer who informed the Migrant
Workers Office of the Philippine Consulate about the death today, Wednesday, reportedly
said the Filipina had been sick.
A friend of the Filipina who initially contacted The
SUN for help on Tuesday confirmed this, but could provide no details about the
nature of her illness.

missing for five days, and even the employer was unsure where she was.
