SHAH ALAM: The husband was the first to be killed and dumped in the double murder of a couple who were found stuffed in bags in separate locations here, say the police.
Shah Alam OCPD Asst Comm Baharudin Mat Taib said police had roughly pieced together the timeline of the gruesome double murder by two brothers from the state of Punjab in India.
“We believe they killed the husband, Lim Ah Kee @ Lim Kok Hoe, 79, in the living room of the couples’ apartment first, sometime between 10pm and 12am on August 23.
“They then stuffed the body into a bag, transported it on a motorcycle and dumped it into a drain near the Alam Megah LRT station, ” he said at a press conference held at the Shah Alam police headquarters on Friday (Aug 30).
The two brothers, age 19 and 24, who were staying in the same condominium with the couple, then killed the wife, Tan Siew Mee, 52, when she returned home from her job as a restaurant manager a few hours later at 2am.
“They then stuffed her body in a similar bag and dumped it the same way in a drain at Persiaran Kuala Selangor, Section 27.
“The husband was stabbed seven times and the wife, 13 times.
"Both also had their throats slit, ” he said.
ACP Baharudin said declined to comment whether the murders were due to a disagreement between the couple, who were subletting a room to the two brothers for RM900, and their killers.
“The motive is still under investigation.
"The two suspects had been staying there for over six months, ” he said.
Tan’s body was discovered on August 26 by a member of the public.
The two brothers, who worked as security guards, were picked up by the police separately just an hour apart on Thursday around 2pm in Subang Jaya and Kota Kemuning.
They led police to Lim’s body a couple of hours later.
Police have recovered the murder weapon, a folding knife, Lim’s mobile phone and a backpack belonging to the younger brother following the arrests.
“We consider this case as solved following these arrests, ” he said.
The brothers have been remanded until Sept 5 to facilitate investigations.
