On 29 May, two bodies were found in a car by a member of the public located at an underground parking of a residential building in Bandar Sri Permaisuri, Cheras
In a statement, Cheras district police chief ACP Muhammad Idzam Jaafar said they received a phone call at 8.26pm from a person who found the bodies in a Toyota Alphard multi-purpose vehicle (MPV) at the residence.
A team of personnel from the Salak Selatan police station, Criminal Investigation Division officers from the Cheras Police Headquarters and forensics members from the Kuala Lumpur Contingent Headquarters, were immediately dispatched to the scene.
"Investigations at the location found the bodies of a local woman, 19 years old, in the front passenger seat and the body of a local man, 19 years old, in the rear passenger seat of the MPV," Idzam stated.
The victims were suspected to have been dead for four to five days before they were found.
According to New Straits Times, investigators have identified the teenagers as Ahmad Danish Hakeem Hanafiah and Akmalharith Damia Zainul.
Closed-circuit television (CCTV) footage obtained by police shows the MPV arriving in the parking lot, but neither passenger leaving the vehicle.

The case has been classified as sudden death after examination of the bodies and there were no criminal elements found at the scene
"The two bodies were sent to the forensic medicine department at the Chancellor Tuanku Muhriz UKM Hospital (HCTM), Cheras, for autopsy," Idzam stated.
As of writing, the investigation is still ongoing.
