Bodies found in car near Senai Utara toll plaza

The bodies of two men believed to have been murdered were found in a car abandoned near the exit road from the Senai Utara toll plaza near Kulaijaya Friday.

The bodies of S. Visvanathan, 48, from Seremban, and M. Kalaiselvan Mudaliar, 38, from Kuala Lumpur, were found in a red Perodua Myvi at about 9am, said Kulaijaya OCPD Supt Zulkefly Yahya.

Visvanathan's body was in the front passenger seat and Kalaiselvan Mudaliar's in the back seat, he said, adding that there were bruises on the bodies, possibly from beatings.

Zulkefly said police believed the men were attacked elsewhere and the bodies were placed in the car, registered under the name of an individual with a Seremban address, and abandoned about 300 metres from the toll plaza.

The bodies had been sent to the Sultanah Aminah Hospital here, he said.

Zulkefly appealed to people who had information on the murders to contact the police at 07-2212 999 or any police station to assist in the investigation.
