"Police checks found lacerations on the neck of the victim but no weapons were found at the scene," Gombak district deputy police chief Supt Tey Kong Seng said.

The cops who discovered his body were responding to a request by the victim's stepfather to check on his vehicle, according to a report in NST Online.

"When they arrived at the location, they found the victim in the back seat, upside down. A team from the Selayang Hospital arrived at the scene soon after, and confirmed that the man was dead," Superintendent Tey Kong Seng said.

"Further investigation found that there are no CCTVs in the area and that there are no witnesses to the (man's death). We also found no weapon or suspicious item in the vehicle," he added while revealing that the victim was from Nilai, Negri Sembilan.

The Forensic Unit of the Selangor Police Contingent Headquarters found two mobile phones, a pair of shoes and socks, a pair of slippers and a shirt in the car.
