Two more Malaysians were charged yesterday with murder, in connection with the body found at Pearls Centre car park on Sunday.

Kirubakaran Manikumaran, 22, and Ananthan Muniandy, 20, are accused of causing the death of their compatriot, Mr S Krisnan Value, 47, with two other accomplices, who were charged earlier this week.

The police believe the alleged murder happened between 12.37am and 1.13am on Sunday at the building along Eu Tong Sen Street.

The duo were arrested in Malaysia in collaboration with the Royal Malaysia Police, following a warrant of arrest issued by the State Courts.

They were extradited to Singapore the day their accomplices Thiagu Muniandy, 23, and Sunder Rangasamy, 27, were charged in Singapore with murder.

Mr Krisnan’s body was found only in the afternoon that day, when the police received a call for assistance at 1.16pm regarding a man found lying motionless on the 11th floor of the dimly lit car park.

Broken glass was believed to have been found near his body.

Yesterday, the court granted a request to remand Kirubakaran and Ananthan at the Central Police Division for further police investigation.

They will appear in court again on Tuesday.

The four suspects could be sentenced to death if found guilty of murder.
