MANILA, Philippines—The body of a man who had been stabbed to death was found inside the toilet of his condominium unit in Katipunan, Quezon City, before dawn Sunday, the police said.

Chief Inspector Benjamin Elenzano, head of the Quezon City Police District homicide investigation unit, identified the victim as Winston Lou Ynlon, 28.

Elenzano said investigators who went to Ynlon’s unit at the Sunrise Condominium on Esteban Abada Street, Loyola Heights, found it in complete disarray.

He added that police have yet to determine what the victim does for a living and the motive for his killing, although their initial theory was that it was robbery.

Elenzano said police investigators were also still trying to establish if anything had been taken from Ynlon’s unit.

“We have not started the inventory of what [items are] missing as we have yet to talk to the victim’s family,” he told the Philippine Daily Inquirer.

Ynlon’s body was reported to the police by his friend, Jojo Flores.

Flores told the police that he went to the victim’s unit after the latter failed to reply to his phone calls.

After his repeated knocks on the door went unanswered, Flores said he went to the building administrator and asked him to let him into the victim’s unit.

They later found the victim in the toilet inside his unit. His hands and feet were tied while his body bore several stab wounds.

Police said that based on the body’s condition, the victim could have been dead for hours before he was discovered.
