A man was found floating in Sungai Baya, Skrang, about 150 kilometres from here, today with a crocodile bite on the left shoulder, two days after he was reported missing.

According to a spokesman from the Fire and Rescue Department, the victim, identified as Aji anak Inyau, 73, from the Jangin Kejemut longhouse, Skrang, in Sri Aman division, was reported missing by his wife last Wednesday after he failed to return home.

He said Aji's body was found by villagers who were involved in the search and rescue operation at about 7.30 am.

The body was then sent to Sri Aman Hospital for post mortem. - BERNAMA
