Skeleton In Toa Payoh Flat Found By Contractors In June 2022, 73-Year-Old Woman Lived There​

When the occupant of a Toa Payoh flat failed to pay her rent for more than two years, the HDB decided to repossess the unit.

Contractors broke into the flat on 16 Jun 2022 to do that but instead made a shocking discovery — a skeleton.

The identity of the person whom the skeleton belonged to is now officially undetermined, a state coroner said.

However, it’s likely to be the elderly woman who was living in the flat.

73-year-old woman lived alone in flat​

During a hearing on Thursday (6 Apr), the state coroner told the court that a Madam Cheng Ah Imm lived in the fourth-floor unit in Block 15 Toa Payoh Lorong 7, reported The Straits Times (ST).

The 73-year-old had lived there with her brother but had been living alone since he moved into a home in 2016.


According to Shin Min Daily News, her brother had since passed away.

She has another brother, who has also reportedly passed away.

DNA testing done on skeleton in Toa Payoh flat​

In order to find out its identity, DNA testing was done on the skeleton, the coroner said.

It revealed that the bones likely belonged to Mdm Cheng.

However, this couldn’t be determined with certainty.

Investigators had also taken DNA samples from a mask belonging to her brother and compared them with that of the skeleton.

This showed that the two samples were taken from siblings.

But as the brother’s sample wasn’t taken directly from his body, it wasn’t enough to conclusively determine that the skeleton was Mdm Cheng’s.

Many lingering questions remain​

Apparently, many lingering questions remain over the case.

The last time the rent on the flat was paid was on 23 Mar 2020.


But when neighbours were queried, one said she saw an elderly woman at the unit in 2021, said an investigation officer.

However, she didn’t know who the woman was.

Old fliers were found outside her door by the contractors who came on 16 Jun 2022.

As the door was locked and had no signs of forced entry until the contractors broke it open, the police ruled out foul play.


Mdm Cheng reportedly has no other living relatives.


Due to the failure to determine the skeleton’s identity, the coroner recorded an open verdict on the case.

Looks like unless new evidence somehow turns up, this will have to be chalked up as another mystery

with new door and lock she can also go in and out with zero resistance. contractors will have to look for tonychat’s or tobelightlight’s skeleton when he stops posting on sbf after 6.9 months.

some neighbors bochap while some neighboring units are unoccupied for years. moreover many lau ah por seal up windows and doors like living in underground bunkers. the paranoia of intrusion by strangers and peeping by teekos is sextremely high. also include the paranoia of hearing knocking noises and firecrackers in the middle of the night, plus hallucination of someone whistling behind or right next to ears.

for lonely and abandoned sinkie unkers and aunties they will reinvoke, reengineer, reinstate new gen nano trace together tokens and implant them into perineums to track life and death. if dead will alert data center of inactivity after 69 days. must twitch or scratch a bit otherwise they’ll send contractors to pick up your skeleton.

It's wise of Mdm Gan to work as a prostitute. There will be a riot if her ah neh customers don't see her for a day.

These old one-room flats have a distinctive odor which is further accentuated by the claustrophobic corridors. It could easily be the smell of decomposed corpse but old folks living there probably have poor sense of smell to detect it.

hanor, that's why tarpow john and his comrades must organise more trips to downtown east theatre to watch reruns of mikey jackson or john trabutoh "grease" movies to learn jerky and twerky movements to be detected as staying alive.
those fortunate to visit thailand can always do the loy krathong hand movements, the pattaya 2-step is optional

nabez, just have more cans of heinz products and the bedok landlady will detect burps from both ends, especially the sound of silence that comes with a whiff similar to what the cat brought in
