SINGAPORE: A man suspected of murdering a 79-year-old woman in a Housing Board flat in Sengkang was taken to the scene of the crime by the police on Friday (Jul 4).
Dressed in a red polo shirt, black shorts and clear slippers, Lim Yuen Li, 44, arrived at Block 465B Fernvale Road at about 9.30am in an unmarked black van.
With his arms and legs in black restraints, the bespectacled Lim was brought to the 11th floor, accompanied by six plainclothes police investigators and forensics officers.
A police cordon was set up along a portion of the corridor, with four uniformed police officers guarding the perimeter.
The police spent over three hours inside, questioning Lim and conducting forensic investigations. Equipment was seen on the ground outside the unit, including a yellow bag marked “Biohazard waste”.
Midway through, a resident from the floor below came up to see what was going on, telling a police officer he had heard some noises above.
At around 1pm, Lim was taken away.
