Bukit Aman Criminal Investigation Department director Mohd Bakri Mohd Zinin said the suspects were taken to the Kuala Lumpur Hospital for examinations to ensure that they were in good health and whether they had any injuries or sickness before being allowed access to legal counsel.
There were no other checks on the suspects requested by the police from the hospital, he said in a statement today.
He denied a front page report in a Malay daily that the suspects were brought to the hospital two days ago for blood and sperm tests and the possibility that Sosilawati was raped.
On a claim by the main suspect that he was punched, kicked and forced to sign documents against his will by the police, Bakri said the suspect should lodge a police report to enable an investigation to be carried out.
Sosilawati, 47, and three others -- lawyer Ahmad Kamil Abdul Karim, 32, CIMB Bank officer Noorhisham Mohammad, 38, and driver Kamarudin Shansudin, 44 – went missing on Aug 30. Their remains were later found in Ladang Gadong near Banting.
Eight suspects have been detained, among them, the two lawyer brothers.
In BANTING, the police forensic team visited the murder scene at a poultry farm in Ladang Gadong today.
The team arrived in several vehicles along with police patrol cars which ferried the suspects.
The police stopped members of the press from entering a road leading to the farm.
The suspects were later brought to a car park outside a legal firm in Jalan Kemboja, off Jalan Sultan Alam Shah, Banting, where one of them was brought out of the car.
The forensic team took some pictures at the car park before leaving the scene.
