PETALING JAYA: The husband in the Desa ParkCity, Kepong, condominium death case died from multiple injuries sustained in a fall from a height, according to a post-mortem completed on Saturday (Aug 29).
Kuala Lumpur police chief Comm Datuk Fadil Marsus said the post-mortem was completed at 7pm.
“Based on the post-mortem findings, the cause of death was multiple injuries due to a fall from height,” he said in a statement Saturday.
He added that both families were making arrangements to bring the bodies home for burial.
Earlier, media reports said post-mortems on three of the four victims had been completed, with all three found to have suffered injuries caused by a sharp weapon.
The 48-year-old man was earlier reported to have died after falling from the condominium, while his 47-year-old wife and their two children were found dead inside the family’s unit.
Police received a report at 3.32pm on Thursday (Aug 27) and, with the assistance of the Fire and Rescue Department, entered the unit, where they found the woman and her two children, a nine-year-old girl and a seven-year-old boy, dead in separate rooms.
On Friday (Aug 28), police said the deaths of the four family members were believed to be linked to a love scam that had resulted in losses and debts amounting to RM260,000.
He said, the case also revealed an alleged illegal investment issue, alongside the love scam.
