AN employee of a rental car company in Tanjung Malim was found dead in Felda Gedangsa, Hulu Selangor, yesterday.

The victim was reported missing after delivering a rental car to a customer on July 10.

It is believed that the 25-year-old woman was killed by someone known to her.

Her body was discovered about 6pm in the oil palm plantation in Kampung Sri Kledang in Hulu Selangor.

Muallim district police chief Mohd Hasni Mohd Nasir had earlier said that the woman, known as “Nur Farah Kartini Abdullah”, was reported missing by her housemate at 1.56am last Thursday (July 11).

Nur Farah, who was from Sarawak and a former student of Universiti Pendidikan Sultan Idris in Tanjung Malim, was last seen wearing a blue corporate outfit, a hijab and black slacks. 

Sinar Daily, meanwhile, quoted Selangor police chief Datuk Hussein Omar Khan saying that police have since arrested the victim’s 26-year-old boyfriend, who is a civil servant.

He said the investigation has been classified as murder under Section 302 of the Penal Code. – July 16, 2024
