Police have apprehended a 26-year-old suspect in connection with a robbery-murder case that resulted in the death of a 69-year-old man in Teluk Intan last April. The arrest, made on August 26 in Klang, Selangor, is part of ongoing efforts to identify and prosecute those responsible for the incident. Chua Kok Lian, the chief of Hilir Perak police, revealed that the suspect, along with four accomplices, was previously charged on May 7 under Section 302 of the Penal Code, in conjunction with Section 34.

Following further investigation, the case was forwarded to the deputy public prosecutor for further action. The suspect is presently in custody and is scheduled to appear before the Teluk Intan magistrates' court on September 2. Chua emphasized that individuals with information about criminal activities should come forward to assist in maintaining public safety and order.

The victim was found dead at the scene after being severely injured during a gang robbery at a residence in Pekan Baru, Teluk Intan on April 17.
