A local YouTuber was recently arrested by the police following the death of his girlfriend in an incident that took place at their acquaintance’s residence in Teluk Kumbar, Penang, last Saturday (2nd April).
The suspect, who is said to be in his 20s, along with his three other friends (aged between 23 to 28), were detained by the team from the Southwest district police station on Sunday and yesterday to assist in the investigation of the alleged murder case.
Southwest District Police Chief, Supt. Kamarul Rizal Jenal revealed in his statement, “The police received a report from a doctor at the Balik Pulau Hospital at 10:39pm on Saturday (2nd April) about a 20-year-old woman who was taken to the hospital unconscious and in critical condition. The examination of the victim found bruises on her head and her whole body. She was then taken to Penang Hospital (HPP) for further treatment.”
The police official later stated that the woman died the next day (Sunday, 3rd April) while receiving treatment at the HPP. Following that, the police arrested four men, including the victim’s boyfriend, to assist in the investigation. In his statement, Kamarul also added that the victim was believed to have been beaten with blunt objects.
Earlier, the local media reported on a woman who died after allegedly being beaten by her boyfriend. As reported by Harian Metro, the incident took place after the couple had an argument believed to be due to jealousy. The victim and her boyfriend have been staying at their friend’s rented house since arriving in Penang on 27th March for filming some content for their YouTube site. It’s understood that the woman is from Melaka.
The suspects are now being remanded for seven days until 11th April to assist in the investigations under Section 302 of the Penal Code for murder.
