A 40-year-old woman was recently found dead in her home in Petaling Jaya with bruises all over her body
According to a statement issued by the Petaling Jaya police headquarters for district police chief Nik Ezanee Mohd Faisal, the incident took place on Tuesday, 9 February, at the Pelangi Damansara flats.
The cause of death has not been identified but the body has been taken to the University of Malaya Medical Centre (UMMC) for an autopsy.
The main suspect of the case is the woman's 29-year-old husband.
He admitted that they got into a fight after she learnt of his second marriage through a TikTok.
The suspect told the police that an argument broke out between him and his wife on 8 February around 10pm after she saw a TikTok video of him with another woman.
During the fight, the man slapped and punched her until she was unconscious. He then fled the scene and went to Klang, where his second wife lived.
The police arrested the man the next day at a construction site near the Kuala Lumpur Stadium. They also seized items such as two telephones, some clothes, and a bag with RM200 cash.
After that, to assist with investigations, they arrested a 45-year-old woman who admitted to being the man's second wife. She was apprehended at a construction site in Taman Klang Utama, Klang, and noted that she had been married to the man since November last year.
Both suspects are remanded for six days and will be investigated under Section 302 of the Penal Code for murder
Section 302 states that whoever commits murder shall be punished with death. If found guilty, they will be liable to mandatory death penalty.
Asking for help is not a sign of weakness.
