SUNGAI BULOH: The cause of death of 25-year-old Nur Farah Kartini Abdullah has yet to be established due to the state of decomposition of her body, particularly in the chest and face, says Selangor police chief Datuk Hussein Omar Khan.
He said the Sungai Buloh Hospital forensic department pathologist required laboratory analysis results from several biological samples from the remains to ascertain the cause of death.
“Due to the decomposition, especially in the chest and face, experts are currently unable to confirm the cause of death.
"Once we receive the laboratory analysis results, the experts can proceed with determining the cause of death," he told reporters today.
Hussein also confirmed that a Toyota car belonging to the suspect, an acquaintance of Farah’s, had been seized for further investigation.
Farah’s body was discovered in an oil palm plantation area in Kampung Sri Kledang, Hulu Selangor, at around 6pm on Monday.
She was reported missing on July 10 after delivering a rental car to a customer.
A 26-year-old man, also a policeman stationed in Perak, was subsequently arrested and remanded for seven days until July 22 to assist in the investigation under Section 302 of the Penal Code.
