Two men believed to be foreigners were found dead at a Chinese cemetery next to Taman Kijang in Lunas near here on Tuesday morning.

The bodies, which did not display any external injury were wrapped in sarong and placed about 150 metres apart.

Kulim police chief, Supt Abdullah Arshad said residents who stumbled on the bodies about 11.30am, alerted the police.

He said the victims who were foreigners, died elsewhere and their bodies were dumped at the cemetery.

"We are waiting for the post-mortem report to determine if there was foul play in the deaths," he said.
