SHAH ALAM – Five individuals, including two women, were arrested last week around Ampang and Kajang, believed to be involved in the murder of a health clinic chain owner whose body was found inside a luggage bag in a ravine in Hulu Langat.
Selangor police chief Datuk Hussein Omar Khan said the suspects were aged between 22 and 40, including a man in his late 30s who was the main suspect in the case, and police also seized 12 mobile phones, including one belonging to the victim.
He said that preliminary investigations found that the 41-year-old male victim was driving to meet the main suspect, a contractor at a restaurant in Semenyih, near here at about 11am on April 26.
“The victim then sent a text to his housemate asking to deposit the company’s money, amounting to RM228,000, into an unknown account.
“The accountant of the victim’s company also received a text ordering him to do something similar. However, he did not do as he was asked as he felt something was amiss, and the victim’s mobile phone could not be contacted,” he said at a press conference at the Selangor police contingent headquarters here today. – Bernama, May 2, 2023
