Teen calls 999 after dispute with girlfriend, police find 19-year-old woman dead in Kuantan

On October 6, a 19-year-old man in Kuantan called the emergency hotline, 999, following a disagreement with his girlfriend. Upon arrival at the rented house in Jalan Air Putih 2, police found the woman unconscious on the ground floor.

A seven-day remand order was issued, and the case is currently under investigation, with post-mortem examinations and witness statements pending. The public has been advised against speculating or spreading unverified information during the ongoing inquiry.
