According to a report by Kosmo, the incident occurred at the couple’s apartment in Kampung Baru Subang on Saturday (Aug 23).
Sungai Buloh district police chief Superintendent Mohd Hafiz Muhammad Nor said police were contacted by the 47-year-old suspect at 8.54pm, who told them he had killed his girlfriend due to her controlling behaviour, which caused him great stress.
When a team from the district Criminal Investigation Department arrived at the scene, the suspect opened the door and the officers discovered a woman lying unconscious on the bed inside the room.
Two medical assistants from the Sungai Buloh Hospital later confirmed that the victim had died more than four hours before she was found by police.
Mohd Hafiz said the suspect were then arrested and remanded for seven days until Aug 30 to facilitate investigations.
The case is now being probed under Section 302 of the Penal Code for murder, which carries the mandatory death penalty, or imprisonment of 30 to 40 years and no fewer than 12 strokes of the cane if not sentenced to death.
The public is urged to remain calm and not make any speculations regarding the case. If they have further information, they are to call the nearest police station or the investigating officer, Inspector Azraai Mohamad Amin, at 018-9696941.
