Dead woman found floating in Marikina River

MANILA, Philippines (UPDATE) — A naked dead body of a woman was fished out of the Marikina River yesterday morning.

It was not the first time a dead body was found floating the river.

In 2007, the body of Roger Lagarto, 19, was found by a Parks Development Office employee near the restaurants at the Marikina Riverpark in Santo Nino Village.

That same year, the remains of Jeremias Jaruda III, also a college student, was found in the river and was suspected to have perished three to five days before he was found.

A dead woman was also found in the river in 2009. - with Mike Frialde
