The area surrounding the unused water park is widely known for drug-related activity and robberies. Police have not issued a statement about Sunday’s events.

This is not the first concerning case reported from the vicinity. On 25 August, the decomposing body of a 29-year-old Nepali man was discovered in the same area, though police said at the time that no suspicious circumstances were identified.

The water theme park project was awarded to a Malaysian company in 2017, but construction did not progress. The site has remained abandoned and without maintenance for years, prompting ongoing concerns from nearby residents.
