THE Department of Foreign Affairs yesterday said initial information it received from Hong Kong authorities showed no sign of foul play in the death of a Filipino woman whose body was found floating near the pier in Tsing Yi on July 13.

However, Hong Kong authorities are still conducting investigation and have yet to issue a final report as to the cause of death of the overseas Filipino worker, said DFA Assistant Secretary for Migrant Workers Affairs Paul Cortes.

“All we need is the final confirmation of the Hong Kong authorities and we have full confidence it will be released in the soonest time possible,” he said in a briefing.
