According to earlier media reports, Jordan Johnson-Doyle, 25, had been reported missing after he was last seen on May 27 in the Bangsar area.

The man's family only realised he had gone missing after failing to reach him via his mobile phone and his social media accounts had also gone inactive.

It is understood that the body was found face down at the lower-level lift shaft area of the construction site, and some of the man’s clothing had come off. - BERNAMA
