KUANTAN, Oct 17 — The wife of a food outlet operator was found murdered in her house in Taman Sungai Isap, near here, early this morning.
Kuantan OCPD ACP Mohd Jasmani Yusof said victim Fatimah Zaharah Sulong, 53, was believed to have been smothered while she was asleep between 2am and 4am.
Her body was found by her husband upon his return home from their food outlet in Kemunting here.
Preliminary investigation showed that the intruder broke into the house through a window in one of the rooms and Fatimah Zaharah's handbag was missing, Mohd Jasmani told reporters here.
The body had been sent to the Tengku Ampuan Afzan Hospital for a post-mortem.
