SHAH ALAM: The body of a man, believed to be a foreigner, was found in the bushes with head injuries near Institut Pengurusan Peladang, Tanjong Karang on Tuesday (Nov 29) morning.

Kuala Selangor district police chief Supt Ramli Kasa said police received a report from the public regarding the discovery of the body at 9.10am and preliminary investigations at the scene revealed that the victim, in his 40s, was found lying face down in the bushes with head injuries.
