The police arrested an unemployed 28-year-old man on suspicion of murdering his mother in Kampung Baru Pasir Penambang, Kuala Selangor yesterday.
Kuala Selangor district police chief Supt Ramli Kasa said police were alerted to the case at about 5.45pm by the victim’s 30-year-old daughter who went to the house to check on her mother when the latter did not answer her calls.
He said on arrival, the daughter saw bloodstains all over the house and the suspect, who was shocked by the presence of his sibling, fled into a bush area behind the house.
“The police who went to the scene found a woman, with the head severed, in the living room and bloodstains in the house.
“With the help of villagers, police managed to nab the suspect who was found hiding in the bush area near the house,” he said in a statement today.
Ramli said the police also seized a machete, believed to be the murder weapon, from a toilet in the house.
The suspect tested positive for methamphetamine and amphetamine, he said, adding that the police had obtained an order from the Kuala Selangor Magistrate’s Court to remand the man for seven days from today.
