Body of foreign woman found with head injuries in Bandar Tasik Puteri, cops open murder probe


GOMBAK: The body of a foreign woman was found with signs of head damage here on Friday (June 20).

Gombak OCPD Asst Comm Noor Ariffin Mohamad Nasir, in a statement Saturday (June 21), said that the discovery was made on Friday at a shophouse in Bandar Tasik Puteri.

“The victim was a 37-year-old woman and the body was found lying in a bed in a room inside the shophouse. She was found to have stayed there for several months and had been working at a restaurant.

“A post mortem showed that the victim had skull damage which we believe came from being hit by a dull object. The autopsy also showed that she had been suffocated,” he said.
