Decomposed Body of Man in His 60s Found in Gimpo Apartment; Autopsy Requested

Police have launched an investigation after the body of a man in his 60s was found in a state of decomposition at an apartment in Gimpo, Gyeonggi Province.

According to the Gimpo Police Station on Friday, a report was filed by the family at 10:44 a.m. the previous day stating that a man in his 60s, identified as Mr. A, was found dead at an apartment in Gurae-dong, Gimpo.

It was learned that Mr. A's family went to check on him after receiving a call from the apartment management office saying that delivery packages were piling up in front of his home.

At the time of discovery, the body was severely decomposed, and no signs of external intrusion were found.

Police plan to request an autopsy from the National Forensic Service to determine the exact cause of Mr. A's death.

A police official stated, "It is difficult to estimate the time of death," adding, "While there appears to be no relation to crime, we decided to request an autopsy while keeping all possibilities open."
