Hair Strands May Hold Key To Identity Of Sexual Predator

Loose hair strands found on a girl whose sexually-assaulted body was stuffed inside a sports bag in Petaling Jaya yesterday, may hold the key to the killer's identity.

Bernama learnt that the strands and the unidentified victim's blood sample have been sent for DNA tests to facilitate investigations into the murder.

A post-mortem at the Kuala Lumpur Hospital revealed that the insertion by the assailant, of an entire cucumber and a brinjal inside her vagina, ruptured her rectum and caused bacterial infection.

The victim, aged between six and nine, was found in the bag which was abandoned at the staircase of a three-storey shoplot in PJS 1/48.

The brutal murder has prompted the police to review the case of the 'Kampung Baru Molester' who has eluded the police for the past three months. It is believed the wanted man is linked to two cases of molest, where the victims, aged between five and six, were sexually attacked with brinjals after he convinced them to look for his missing cat.

Earlier at a Press conference, Brickfields police chief ACP Arjunaidi Mohamed said police had not ruled out the involvement of the `Kampung Baru Molester' in the murder.

He appealed to families of missing children to contact the police to assist them in their probe, adding that Brickfields police were also liasing with other district police chiefs over the murder of the girl. Arjunaidi described the victim as curly-haired, of fair complexion and weighing 18kg, with a birth-mark on her left thigh.

"We are also checking the images recorded by a closed-circuit television (CCTV) camera installed at the corridor of the premises," he added.

Those with information on the murder are requested to call the Petaling Jaya police headquarters at 03- 79662222. (Bernama)

***** What the hell is going on in our once safe and peaceful country? Our troubles seem to be mounting from every sphere of our lives. When small children are so brutally assaulted and murdered it pains every single person in this country. Where have the sickos emerged from?

I hope the police will deploy their best men on this investigation and get the deranged lunatic(s) who did this behind bars at the earliest. It was announced that a RM20,000 reward has been offered on the person or persons responsible for the brutal crime.
