Police hunting 6 suspects in rape and murder of student
-
KAJANG (SELANGOR) - POLICE are looking for six suspects to help their investigation into the murder of a university student whose half-nude body was found in a house on the outskirts of Kuala Lumpur on Thursday.
Ms Tang Lai Meng, 20, was believed to have been raped and strangled in a room in her rented double-storey house.
The first-year business administration student at Universiti Tunku Abdul Rahman, near the Selangor town of Kajang, was found lying on her bed with her hands tied behind her back.
Police said they believed that the motive for the murder was robbery and rape, and that the crime was carried out by more than three people.
One of the suspects is a Pakistani security guard at the Bandar Mahkota residential area where the victim lived.
Selangor police chief Datuk Khalid Abu Bakar said the guard had not turned up for work since the incident.
The other five people whom police want to contact are her former housemates.
Police took statements from six people yesterday, including her 41-year-old boyfriend and a campus friend, said a police spokesman.
Ms Tang had rented a room in the house just two months ago and started her course last month.
Her grieving mother, Madam Kong Su Har, told Guang Ming Daily that she had advised her daughter to remain in their Ipoh home town to further her studies, but she was determined to go to the university, which is near Kuala Lumpur.
A police team rushed to the house at noon after receiving a report from a neighbour, who said the back door grille was damaged and a window was opened wide.
Ms Tang was clad only in a T-shirt and a pillowcase was found wrapped around her neck.
'Autopsy found that the victim died due to suffocation, possibly because her face was covered with something,' the police spokesman said.
The police team found the front doors open, which seemed to indicate that her assailant or assailants could have used keys to open the doors from the inside to flee.
The victim's Toyota Vios car, laptop, two mobile phones and purse were missing.
The police chief of the Kajang district, Assistant Commissioner Rosli Mohd Nizam, said initial investigations showed Ms Tang could have been attacked seven hours before her body was discovered.
The neighbour who called the police also said he had noticed a man in a silver Proton Waja car who was a frequent visitor.
In Ipoh, Ms Tang's family, who operate a restaurant business, at first refused to believe the news when informed by reporters. They later confirmed the news by contacting the Kajang police station.

i always have a question in my mind...
why always non-chinese rob, rape, kill chinese?
is it because chinese are easy to bully or they are more attractive to rape?
again, again and again, chinese are being rape...
should we make ourselves more and more ugly, such as wrap ourselves with a lot of clothing and not wearing revealing clothings....
i really don't know how to prevent these things from happening... and i am open to discussions.... -

I think the press should only report when rapists get caught and given severe sentences.This should psychologically deter would be rapists from thinking that it is easy to rape and harder to get caught in Malaysia.In Singapore press reports are being controlled for sure so there are no rape tales to read about except in Sgforums>
