  "account": "IPOH, August 20 — Kuala Kangsar district police are appealing for public assistance to identify the body of a woman discovered in a suitcase near Jeti Lembah in Sungai Perak. Initial fingerprint checks revealed no matching records, and a subsequent search through the Perak National Registration Department (JPN) also yielded no hits. Police Chief ACP Heisham Harun stated that a dental examination indicated the victim was a woman in her 30s. Additional examination discovered she was 154 centimeters tall, weighed approximately 48 kilograms, had a tanned complexion, and shoulder-length black hair. The woman was found wearing a long-sleeved black-and-white striped shirt, black jeans, and earrings. \"These physical characteristics and clothing may assist members of the public in identifying the victim,\" Harun explained in a statement. Confirmation from police on Saturday confirmed the body found in the suitcase was that of a woman in her 30s.",
