KUALA LUMPUR: A post-mortem examination has revealed that a woman found dead in a residence in Sunway SPK Damansara, Kepong sustained 89 injuries, intensifying public concern over the tragic domestic incident.
Kuala Lumpur police chief Fadil Marsus confirmed that the injuries included multiple stab wounds as well as defensive wounds believed to have been inflicted during a struggle.
