Ampang Jaya police chief ACP Amiruddin Jamaluddin said the confirmation was made possible after the victim's father identified the body at UKM Medical Centre here.
"The father lodged a report at the Setapak police station two days ago stating that the victim is his daughter who had gone missing for five days.
"He lodged the report after reading news reports on the case and information about the gold bracelet, tiny gold earrings and the remains of the baju kurung worn by the victim," ACP Amiruddin told reporters.
He said the father claimed that his daughter left home to meet a friend. "The victim is a student of a private college in Selayang and police are questioning all her friends to track down the suspect," he said.
