Singaporean man, woman found dead in Cheras homestay


KUALA LUMPUR: A Singaporean man and woman were found dead in a homestay in Cheras on Friday (May 16).

Cheras OCPD Asst Comm Aidil Bolhassan, in a statement Saturday (May 17), said that the bodies of the two were found on Friday by a homestay worker.

The worker had noticed their shoes still at the property along Taman Taynton and had knocked at the door but received no response back.

"When the door was opened with the help of the homestay's manager, they found that the air-conditioner, fan and TV were still turned on in the living room.

"As one of the room doors in the homestay was stuck, they then looked through a window and found both bodies on the bed. They also noticed a foul smell from the room," he said.

Police investigations showed no signs of injuries on the bodies and no criminal elements involved.

Police also found ketamine in a stainless steel plate in the room.

The relationship between the two victims have yet to be ascertained

A post mortem will be conducted and investigations are ongoing, said ACP Aidil.
