An Indonesian working for an Egyptian family was found dead outside of an apartment building in Nasr City, Cairo, last Monday.
Suwin Satimah binti Takhiyat reportedly died after falling from her employer's apartment located on the 8th floor, Indonesian Embassy spokesman Danang Waskito said in a release made available to The Jakarta Post on Saturday.
The Cirebon native, said to have been working in Cairo for five months, is thought to have fallen to her death while trying to escape the building by using a makeshift rope out of bed sheets.
Danang added that a suitcase containing clothes belonging to deceased was found next to the body.
He said the body was taken to Cairo's Forensic Hospital and the local authorities were cooperating with the embassy in investigating the case.
The employer, an official at an Egyptian ministry, was reportedly away on holiday when the incident occurred. (amr)
