Results of the initial investigation revealed that prior to the incident, there was a heated argument between the murderer and the victim, due to some dissatisfaction.
"He accused the victim of changing some components of his motorcycle when it was sent to the workshop three weeks ago," Anuar added. The argument then escalated, which led to the victim's untimely demise.
