TWO bodies were found near the KTM railway track in Upper Bukit Timah Road on Saturday morning.

The police received a call at 5.24am that a train had knocked down a couple at the track near Railway Mall.

The couple, believed to be a 19-year-old Chinese boy and a 20-year-old Chinese girl, were pronounced dead at 6.08am.

A Singapore Civil Defence Force spokesman said that the Chinese boy's left leg was amputated and he suffered an open head wound and multiple body fractures.

The girl, also Chinese, had multiple body fractures, and her right leg was nearly severed at the knee.

Ms Shahriza Embi, a Keretapi Tanah Melayu Berhad (KTMB) spokesman, said that an empty KTM train heading to Johor Bahru knocked down the couple. 'We had no idea how they got there.'

The morning shuttle between Johor Bahru and Singapore was cancelled. Four other train services were delayed for between one and two hours.

The couple, believed to be students from Republic Polytechnic, were apparently sitting on the track when the train came.
