Fishermen assisting with the search operations reportedly found the victim’s body stuck in the roots of a mangrove tree about 400m from the Forest City Bridge in Johor Bahru (JB).

The victim has been identified as a 45-year-old man from Pahang named Jivanandan who travels frequently between Singapore and Malaysia for work.
