Negeri Sembilan police chief Datuk Alzafny Ahmad said his department received information from the public at about 4.15 pm about a fight involving Bangladeshi labourers who were colleagues at a plantation in the district.
“Upon receiving information, a police team from the Linggi police station rushed to the scene of the incident and arrested a fellow Malaysian man in his 40s who was suspected of being involved.
“The results of the initial investigation later led to the discovery of two more bodies in their 40s and 50s in the Sua Manggis plantation area, Linggi,” he said in a statement here today.
