SINGAPORE: A coroner has ruled an open verdict in the death of a 34-year-old woman who was found dead in a condominium apartment after neighbours reported a foul smell.
The apartment was locked when the police went down that same morning, and a locksmith was engaged to dismantle the lock. Various types of medication prescribed to Ms Zhang were found outside the bedroom, while her fridge contained cans of beer and bottles of alcohol were found on the living room table.
Ms Zhang's medical records showed that she had a history of insomnia and was on follow-up with a psychiatrist. She was noted to consume excessive amounts of alcohol at home and was seen in the Acute and Emergency Care Centre of Khoo Teck Phuat Hospital in July 2020 for alcohol intoxication. Another close friend of Ms Zhang recounted a history of Ms Zhang consuming sleeping pills and drinking a lot of alcohol to address her insomnia. In the months before her death, the friend said Ms Zhang was increasingly confused about what she was doing and would fall asleep at random places.
