The remains were found in a state of decomposition on the fifth floor of the 10-storey building on Thursday, according to Mirpur Darus Salam Police Station chief Tofayel Ahmed.
The man was wearing a red shirt and a pair of jeans but the authorities could not identify him immediately, reports bdnews24.com.
