A 28-year-old woman has been arrested to assist police in investigations into the murder of a man at a cemetery near Jalan Lumba Kuda in Kota Sentosa.
Padawan district police chief Superintendent Mohd Irwan Hafiz Md Radzi said the suspect was detained at a shop in Siburan, Mile 17, at about 4.45pm on Saturday.
“Other suspects are still actively being tracked down,” he said when contacted.
The woman has been remanded since Sunday to facilitate further investigations.
The case is linked to a violent incident last Saturday in which a 67-year-old grave builder was found dead at the cemetery, while his 33-year-old son was discovered injured and was rushed to Sarawak General Hospital for treatment.
Both victims were found around noon, covered in blood and unconscious.
The case is being investigated under Section 302 of the Penal Code for murder.
Members of the public with information related to the incident are urged to contact investigating officer ASP Sylvarius Gopog at 013-863 7241, the Padawan district police headquarters at 082-862233, or any nearby police station.
