A MAN who bought a luxury apartment in an upper class Malaysian suburb
found a body chopped into 11 pieces in the refrigerator.
Police said the owner made the gruesome discovery on Sunday when he went
to the apartment in Mont Kiara, a suburb in Kuala Lumpur, after
receiving the keys last week.
"When he opened the door he suspected something amiss when he smelt a
strong stench and immediately called the security guard,'' said Ku Chin
Wah, the criminal investigation department chief.
"They found the body in a refrigerator which was sealed with masking
tape,'' he was quoted as saying by The Star newspaper.
The unidentified body, believed to be that of a man, was in the
refrigerator for about a week, the paper said.
According to New Straits Times, the owner bought the apartment through a
bank auction. The unit had been empty for more than three months.
Police are looking for the previous owner of the apartment and a woman
whose photocopied driver's licence was found there.
