Batu Gajah police chief Md Noor Aehawan Mohamad said the 36-year-old suspect was arrested after surrendering himself at the Batu Gajah Police Station at about 2pm. “Based on this information, police then found the victim, 32, with stab wounds in the hotel room and a knife, believed to have been used by the suspect, was found at the scene,” he said in a statement today.

We have detained the suspect and the case is being investigated under Section 302 of the Penal Code,” he said.
