Two Chinese tourists were found dead in a hotel in Bali, Indonesia, on Monday, the local Chinese consulate confirmed on Thursday.
They were identified as a 25-year-old woman named Li and a 22-year-old man named Cheng, according to thepaper.cn.
Their naked bodies were found in an InterContinental hotel.
Police said their personal belongings were intact in the hotel room.
It is not certain whether the two committed suicide or were murdered, and authorities are investigating, local reports said.
A hotel staff received a call from a guest around 6:30 a.m. Monday who said he heard another guest calling for help in the hallway.
According to local reports, the male victim was found lying in the corridor of the hotel. He was covered in blood with wounds on his neck and left leg.
The woman was found in the bathroom with a neck wound.
The room was booked by Ms. Li. Footage from the hotel’s closed-circuit television shows her checking in alone on Sunday night.
Mr Cheng is said to have arrived at 12:17 on Monday. The two later ordered food, which was delivered to the room at around 1:20 am.
Bali is a popular destination for Chinese tourists.
The hotel has so far not issued a statement about the incident.
