“They are friends and they have other relationships that I will not get into,” Kuala Lumpur police chief Commissioner Fadil Marsus said when met after a Deepavali celebration at contingent headquarters on Tuesday.
“I do not need to reveal the full extent, but it is a ‘special’ relationship.”
He added that her body has yet to be claimed and police were still awaiting the toxicology report.
“That will take time. We will determine our suggestions to the deputy public prosecutor in the near future,” he said.
