BODY IN SUITCASE: Online friend allegedly killed her after rape attempt
PETALING JAYA: NG Yuk Tim, the 15-year-old girl reported missing on Monday after she was allegedly dropped off at the Kelana Jaya LRT station by a friend whom she met online, is believed to have been murdered.
This came about following the discovery of a body stuffed in a green suitcase in Jalan Kebun Nenas, Shah Alam, last night.
The discovery was made following a confession by the suspect, a 23-year-old man.
Selangor Community Policing Association chief Kuan Chee Heng said the revelation came to light after a meeting between the association and Ng's mother and several friends concerning her disappearance.
Kuan, speaking at the police headquarters here yesterday, said the meeting was organised to shed light on her disappearance.
The suspect was among those at the meeting as he was purportedly the last person to have had contact with her. It is understood that the suspect and Ng had met via an online social network.
"I noticed that he (the suspect) had peculiar injuries on his hand. As he was the last person who had sent her off to the LRT station, I decided to question him further," said Kuan, a former policeman.
After questioning, the suspect confessed that he had killed Ng.
The suspect claimed that he brought Ng, who had just finished her Penilaian Menengah Rendah examination, to his house in Cheras.
When the suspect allegedly attempted to rape Ng, she retaliated by biting and scratching him, causing him to strike her with a dumbbell.
He then allegedly stuffed her body in a suitcase and dumped it in Jalan Kebun Nenas.
Kuan brought the suspect to the district police headquarters here, where he was questioned for several hours.
He led a police forensics team to the scene where he allegedly dumped the body.
The body was recovered at 10pm. Police also went to the suspect's home to gather evidence.
Police seized the suspect's van, which was believed to have been used to transport the body.
At press time, police had yet to issue a statement on the case.
