GEORGE TOWN: Police are expected to complete their investigations into the murder of cosmetics queen Datuk Sosilawati Lawiya and three others, soon, Inspector-General of Police Tan Sri Ismail Omar said on Saturday.
"We are continuing our investigations... we should be able to complete them soon," he told reporters after attending an Aidilfitri open house hosted by state police chief Datuk Ayub Yaakob here.
Meanwhile, in Kuala Langat, Selangor, divers of the Marine Operations Force continued to scour a sluice near Banting for a new lead into the case.
A check by Bernama at the site showed that a police line had been set up about 100 metres from the location, with several police cars seen in the vicinity.
The operations from 11am to 1pm attracted a group of onlookers. Six divers were seen diving in the drainage but there was no telling if they had found anything.
On Tuesday, the divers found what looked like a golden bangle at a sluice in Kampung Sungai Lang, about 200 meters from the location today.
Sosilawati, 47, her driver Kamarudin Shansudin, lawyer Ahmad Kamil Abdul Karim and CIMB bank officer Norhisham Mohammad went missing on Aug 30 after going to Banting over a land deal. Police found out that they had been killed, their bodies burnt and the ashes thrown into rivers in the vicinity of Sungai Gadong, Tanjung Sepat, near Banting, Selangor.
Police have arrested eight men, including two lawyers, in connection with the case. - Bernama
