Eight suspects arrested over murder of newly-wed man

JOHOR BARU: Eight suspects have been detained over the murder of a newly-married man here.

The suspects, aged between their 20s and 30s, were picked up on Wednesday and yesterday at different locations in the city.

“All have been remanded until Tuesday. Three of them have a criminal record,” said Johor CID chief Senior Asst Comm Datuk Dr Hashim Haron in a press conference at the state police headquarters here yesterday.

In the incident on Monday, spare parts shop owner Allan Tee Kok Weng, 36, died after a group of masked men slashed him in front of his wife Shiau Ting, in her 30s, outside a bistro in Taman Mount Austin.

Both Tee and Shiau, known as Krystal, had attended their wedding dinner hours earlier.

In another case, SAC Dr Hashim said the police were looking for three people, including a woman, in connection with the throwing of a Molotov cocktail at a Customs Department officer's house earlier this month.

He added that a 38-year-old suspect was detained on Sept 13. The three people are businessmen Yip Soon Kent, 25, also known as Pendek Kent, Danny Chuah Seong Khoon, 40, and Carran Lee Sew Kian, 37.

“Those who know their whereabouts are urged to contact the state police hotline at 07-2212999 or lodge a report at the nearest police station,” he said.

Opinion
There is always three sides to a story. Your side, the opposite party's side and the truth. Why was the victim murdered hours after their wedding dinner? Nobody knows. He might have done something bad or maybe the murderers are just cold, inhumane beings killing people because they want to. Then, there is the truth.. or part of it since some of the truth nowadays are covered up for certain reasons.
