The body was removed around 7.30 am by paramedics. An Indian resident dropping her child off at the school bus shared how distressed she was by the scene. “It was very disturbing,” she said. “The body was covered with a blue tarpaulin, and there were so many paramedics and police officers. My child asked questions I couldn’t answer.”
Escape Tower, located in Business Bay, is a popular residence for young professionals due to its proximity to the Business Bay Metro Station. Several nearby residents, including those in Al Batha Tower, reported hearing police sirens at the time of the incident.
Authorities are continuing to investigate the circumstances surrounding the woman’s death. More details are expected as the investigation progresses.
