A girl should not be so ‘beautiful’

KUALA LUMPUR: Murder victim May Goh Lee Fang has been described as a stunning beauty by those who knew her but her distraught father Goh Eng Seng lamented about her looks. 

“A girl should not be so beautiful. She should just be ordinary,” said the father who had rushed back from Africa. 

“Although we are like friends, I do not know about her personal life. She is my only daughter among four children,” he said in between sobs after identifying Lee Fang’s body at the University Malaya Medical Centre mortuary here yesterday. 

On Thursday, his daughter’s body was found sprawled in a pool of blood at the back office of the Ovo - The Difference boutique by one of her partners at 1.15pm.

The owner of the children’s boutique was stabbed seven times at her shop, which was opened in December, by a man believed to be in his 20s or 30s. 

Goh also said that his daughter had a penchant for luxury cars, having owned a Mercedes Benz, a BMW and a Toyota Harrier. 

It is learnt that she had just bought another car and was scheduled to register it over the next few days but no one seems to know the make of the car. 

However, the 26-year-old Lee Fang had also accumulated about eight traffic summonses for speeding. 

Goh, who flew home early yesterday morning, immediately rushed to the medical centre to view his daughter’s body at 11am. 

He works as a general manager of a plantation group that has oil palm estates in Indonesia and Africa. 

District CID chief Supt Abdul Rahman Ibrahim said initial investigations revealed that Lee Fang was a private person and never discussed any personal affairs with her family members or even her childhood friends, who were co-owners of the boutique. 

“Her friends were not even aware that she had a boyfriend,” he said yesterday.
