Police are investigating the discovery of a skeleton in Tin Shui Wai.

At about 5pm yesterday, a passerby reported spotting the remains near a slope in Fung Kong Tsuen.

Police officers found wires tied around the victims' legs and neck. It appears the person died several weeks ago.

A Hong Kong identity card bearing the name of a 33-year-old Indian man was found at the scene.

The cause of death has yet to be determined. A post-mortem examination is being carried out.
