It is learnt that the lawyer had ordered at least three men, believed to be working for him, to carry out the murders at an abandoned house in an oil palm estate in Sungai Gadung.
It is believed that the lawyer owned the estate.
The killings were said to have taken place after Sosilawati had gone with the others to confront the lawyer regarding the transfer of a land title in a deal believed to be worth RM25mil.
It is understood that the meeting had taken place near the lawyer’s house before the victims were taken to the estate, which is near Ladang Gadong.
There, the four were beaten and repeatedly stabbed before they were burnt.
However, police have yet to establish if Sosilawati and three others –lawyer Ahmad Kamil Abdul Karim, 32, CIMB Bank officer Noorhisham Mohammad, 38, and driver Kamarudin Shansudin, 44, – had actually brought RM4mil for their meeting with the Datuk as rumoured.
Meanwhile, police contacted the husband of T. Selvi, who was murdered in Banting on April 27 last year.
Selvi’s husband, 54-year-old mechanic P. Balasundram claimed that the lawyer had cheated him of some money in 2008 in a money lending business they shared.
He said several days later, his wife was slashed to death by two men with machetes in front of her house at Taman Cempaka in Banting.
Bala, who is related to the lawyer, said he received a call yesterday from a policeman enquiring about his wife’s murder.
“The policeman said he was escorting the lawyer to his office to collect documents relating to the money lending business,” he said.
In PETALING JAYA, Selangor police chief Deputy Comm Datuk Khalid Abu Bakar said they had discovered two missing persons reports lodged in Banting believed to be connected to the lawyer, but declined to elaborate.
It is learnt that another two missing persons reports were lodged in Brickfields here, also believed to be connected to the lawyer.
