Teen And Lover Found In Damansara Were Already Dead For 4-6 Days

A girl, clad only in bra and panties, and an Indian national believed to be her lover, were found dead with multiple stab wounds at an apartment unit in Damansara Damai, near here.

The police said the pair had been dead for about four to six days before their bodies were found by a debt collector who went there for the monthly rental at about 1pm on Wednesday.

A knife, believed to be the murder weapon, was found beside the body of the man, who was lying face down in the living room.

Their bodies were discovered by a debt collector who went there to receive payment for monthly rental at about 1:00p.m. on Wednesday, December 18th. The police said the lovers had been dead for about six days before their bodies were discovered.

The man, identified as construction worker Mohinder Pal, 24, had seven stab wounds while the girl, K. Shanmugavalli, 18, was found sprawled on a bed in the master bedroom with five stab wounds in the abdomen.

Selangor deputy police chief Deputy Comm Datuk Abd Rahim Jaafar said their initial investigations found the girl’s parents had not consented to the pair’s relationship,
“We are investigating the case from all angles, including the possible motive of jealousy,” he said.

DCP Abdul Rahim said the man had rented the unit for about two months.
The debt collector had to force open the front door of the unit to get into the apartment, he said.
