BATU PAHAT: Police have confirmed that bone fragments found in an abandoned house in Tongkang Pechah here on Feb 28 belong to murder victim Bella, whose real name is Mila Sharmilah Samsusah.
Bella’s sister Norhisham said the bone fragments had been claimed and safely buried in Bella’s grave at the Banang Jaya Muslim cemetery here at 1pm today.
Batu Pahat acting police chief Shahrulanuar Mushaddat Abdullah Sani said confirmation of the bone fragments came through a DNA test by the chemistry department.
“The test found that they matched the skeletal remains found during the initial investigation of Bella’s murder,” he said.
Bella, a single mother of two, was reported missing on Dec 14 after she left in her boyfriend’s car at 11.50pm to go to a laundromat but failed to return home.
On Jan 24, Bella’s boyfriend Haikal Mahfuz, 25, was charged in the magistrates’ court with her murder between 11am on Dec 14 and 5.30am on Dec 15 at an abandoned house in Tongkang Pechah, Batu Pahat.
