Serdang police chief, Supt Abdul Razak Elias said police are looking for the duo, aged 29 and 30, to assist police investigation.
They are Saravan Kumar a/l Darmalingam, I/C: 811115-14-6077 of 43, BT 12, Jalan Puchong, Castle Field, 47100 Puchong, and Devidasan a/l Munisamy, I/C: 801127-14-6171 of Ladang Castle Field Batu 12, 47100 Puchong.
Abdul Razak urged those who have knowledge of the duo's whereabouts to contact the nearest police station or Serdang police headquarters at 03-89484822.
On the man who was arrested following Rajendram's murder, Abdul Razak said the suspect's remand order which ends today has been extended to assist investigation. He said police have also obtained CCTV footage from the petrol station where Rajendram's body was found to aid the probe, and has been sent to the forensic department.
While police are doing their best to track down the duo, Rajendram's family members, including Lingam, have offered a reward of RM50,000 to anyone with information on the suspects.
Lingam, in a Press release yesterday, said the family was deeply aggrieved and shocked to learn of the sudden and brutal murder of his 52-year-old brother.
Rajendram graduated from the University of Buckingham, UK, in 1993 and had been staying at and assisting the Avdiar Muniswarar Temple in Bandar Puteri Puchong since the end of last month.
Lingam said the family had confronted the temple authorities on allegations that Rajendram had stolen its donation money.
Lingam said the temple had told them that Rajendram was not involved in the theft and the collection for the period when his brother stayed there was less than RM50.
Temple devotees put their donations in the donation box which is handled by the treasurer.
Rajendram's family had urged the police to carry out a thorough investigation into the murder.
Rajendram was found dead at a petrol station in Lebuh Puteri 6 near Bandar Puteri Puchong on Tuesday. He was believed to have been assaulted by a group of men at the temple grounds where he stayed before escaping and seeking help at a petrol station where he collapsed and died.
Rajendram, the youngest of seven siblings, suffered severe injuries on his head and chest, believed to have been caused by a blunt object.
He was believed to have been assaulted by a group of men who accused him of stealing temple funds.
A 30-year-old labourer had been arrested in connection with the case after he lodged a police report on the fight. Two others are still at large.
Abdul Razak urged those who have knowledge of the duo's whereabouts to contact the nearest police station or Serdang police headquarters at 03-89484822.
