The crimes were allegedly carried out in two adjacent neighbourhoods in the city of Shah Alam, a predominantly Malay-Muslim enclave about 30km (19 miles) from the capital.

Police believe the suspect, whose last known address was a flat in the city, is still in the country.

“To date, the number of victims stands at four, all of whom are believed to be students or minors,” Shah Alam police chief Mohd Iqbal Ibrahim said in a statement on Sunday.
