KUALA LUMPUR: The police are hunting for the main suspect behind the death a 38-year-old man in Kapar, after he was assaulted by four assailants armed with parang and taser guns.

Klang Utara district police chief Assistant Commissioner S.Vijaya Rao said: "Two suspects were arrested, while one was released due to lack of evidence.

"Another suspect was charged under Section 43 of the Societies Act 1966 (members of an organised crime group)," he told the New Straits Times today.

That suspect pleaded guilty and was fined RM1,000 for his affiliation with the crime group.

On April 29, Vijaya said the two men aged 25 and 29 were nabbed in the Kapar area.

On April 25, a 38-year-old man was found dead in his residence, believed to have been killed by four assailants.

According to a police statement, the intruders were captured on closed-circuit television (CCTV) footage entering the deceased's home in Taman Jaya, Kapar.

One other man was seen in the recording waiting for an unidentified Perodua Myvi.

Upon arrival at the scene, police found the victim lying face down in front of a bedroom in the house.

Vijaya said the case was being probed under Section 302 of the Penal Code.
