The family of the murdered victim whose body was cut into 11 pieces and placed in a refrigerator has been contacted by the Singapore authorities. Blood samples have been taken for DNA matching.

The body parts are in the Kuala Lumpur Hospital mortuary. Police will provide news when they have results of the DNA tests.

It is believed that the victim is Goh Yoke Seng, but police have not confirm his identity.

Police have remanded a 34-year-old woman in connection to the murder, whose name was used to register the Mont Kiara condominium where the body was found. The unit was auctioned by a bank three months ago. She had surrendered herself at the city police headquarters on Monday.

Police have recovered a sharp object believed to have been used in the murder and have sent it to the Chemistry Department for analysis.

A driving license was also found at the crime scene belonging to a person named Nora Jawi Spreen Jawi.

The woman who was remanded by the police to assist in the investigations of the murder of a man whose body was chopped into 11 pieces and stuffed into a refrigerator in a condominium unit in Mont Kiara had previously registered her name for the unit. It is believed that police are looking for the woman’s boyfriend as well.

Post-mortem results suggests that the cuts made to the body were clean and possibly the work of a “semi-professional”, according to some sources. Police have not ruled out the possibility that all the internal organs of the body were removed before it was put in the refrigerator.

Police are awaiting for the DNA results to identify the victim, who is believed to be a Singaporean. They are working with the Singapore counterparts to locate his relatives.
