A 32 year old Thai woman met her untimely demise after being allegedly pushed by her boyfriend from the 23rd floor to the seventh floor of a condominium in Setia Alam, Malaysia.

 

Shah Alam OCPD Assistant Commander Mohd Iqbal Ibrahim disclosed that the authorities received a distressing report regarding the incident precisely at 10.02pm local time (9.02pm Thailand time) last night.

 

ACP Mohd Iqbal stated in a press release today that according to an eyewitness, the Thai woman and the suspect were engaged in a heated argument before the unfortunate push occurred from the 23rd floor of the condominium.

 

Remarkably, law enforcement was swift to apprehend the 37 year old suspect at the scene of the crime approximately eight minutes after the incident, shedding light on the tragic circumstances surrounding the case.

 

The accused, an Indian national employed as a lorry driver, possesses a troubling criminal history comprising seven prior offences, alongside testing positive for cannabis, reported The Star.

 

“The suspect will be held in custody pending further inquiries. We are pursuing the matter under Section 302 of the Penal Code for murder. We implore individuals possessing pertinent information to reach out to investigating officer Assistant Superintendent Muhammad Khairi Kamaruddin at 012-266 6025.”

 

In related news, a Chinese man joined the insensitively named “Pattaya Flying Club” when he reportedly committed suicide by jumping from the 18th floor of a condominium in the popular seaside resort on February 11. The motive for his tragic decision is believed to be a dispute with his wife.

The incident, which occurred on the morning of February 9, has left the local community in a state of shock.
