The man’s body fell from a Kenya Airways jet and landed in a garden in Clapham, south London at 3.41pm on Sunday.
The horrified owner of the garden called police who linked it with the Kenya Airways flight from Nairobi to Heathrow.
A statement from Kenya Airways said: “The Metropolitan Police in London have informed Kenya Airways of a body that fell off the landing gear of its aircraft moments before the flight landed in London Heathrow Airport.
“On June 30 at 1542hrs (UK time) a body of a yet to be in deified male stowaway landed in a garden in the Borough of Lambeth, South London, suggesting the stowaway was hidden in the undercarriage of the aircraft.
“The police have already been in contact with the Kenya High Commission to help identify and name the person.
“The aircraft was inspected and no damage reported. It was also cleared for operation.”
