KUALA LUMPUR - A foreign man was detained yesterday for allegedly killing his lover at a hotel room in Bukit Bintang last Thursday.

Dang Wangi district police chief ACP Noor Delihan Yahaya said the 27-year-old man was arrested in Sentul at 7.25 pm on Oct 7.

He said the police had earlier received information about a 36-year-old woman who was found lying dead on the floor of a hotel room.

"Initial investigation revealed there were strangulation marks around the local woman’s neck, believed to have been caused by a rope, which was also found at the scene.

"The motive and cause of the incident are still under investigation," he said in a statement today.
