The body of an Indian male was retrieved by officers from the Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF) from Bedok Reservoir early on Monday morning.
Police had received a call at about 8.35am, informing them of a body floating in the reservoir.
SCDF officers found a body floating near the shore when they arrived shortly after. The male casualty was pronounced dead by a SCDF paramedic at 9.22am. The deceased is believed to be Indian construction worker Raman Selvam, 33.
He had been missing since Saturday and was last seen walking into the reservoir on Saturday afternoon. Eyewitnesses said the man refused help from passers-by who had tried to throw him a life buoy.

Asiaone:
Bedok Reservoir cursed?
If found, the body will be the fourth recovered in four months.
On June 20, a highly-decomposed partial corpse was found in the reservoir. The body was identified as Chinese national Lin Xiao, 23, who had gone missing in April.
On Sep 22, the bodies of Tan Sze Sze, 32, and her three-year-old son, Jerald Chin Le Hui, were found floating in Bedok Reservoir.
According to media reports, the stress of her broken marriage and fear of losing the custody battle for her son had pushed Madam Tan over the edge. The two bodies, dressed in red, were found locked in embrace.
Reporters spoke to a resident Mr Liao, 55, who stays nearby and jogs at the reservoir park twice a week with his wife.
When Mr Liao saw police and civil defence officers gathered at the reservoir, he wondered if there had been another drowning.
"Is the reservoir cursed?" he wondered, "Why are there so many incidents lately?"
Another resident Ms He, 38, a teacher, told reporters that fewer people are exercising at the reservoir now and are avoiding the park, especially in the evenings.
