Canada: Body recovered from inside the wall in Calgary shopping mall
Calgary, May 1 (IBNS): A body has been found inside the wall of a shopping mall washroom in Calgary, media reports said.
Police have started investigation into the matter.
In a statement issued by the Calgary Police Service, any foul play in the whole incident has been ruled out.

Police told CTV News that the body was found by a maintenance worker who removed the wall in the fourth floor of the washroom to examine a flushing mechanism.
Calgary Police spokesperson has been quoted by CTV, "If you were to look at the toilet, there's a panel behind it, so that when people move it would automatically flush."
