SUNGAI BULOH: A 41-year-old businessman was found dead with gunshot wounds to his head and chest in Jalan Kg Subang, near Sg Buloh here.

Lim Chee Choye, who was in his Honda Accord when he was shot, got out of his car and sought help before he collapsed and died in the 7am incident near the Rubber Research Institute.

Finding answers: Police searching for clues to the murder yesterday.
Lim had apparently just left his house in Kg Subang.

Petaling Jaya OCPD Asst Comm Arjunaidi Mohamed said police received a call from a security guard of the institute who found Lim slumped on the ground.

“A police forensics team found several 9mm bullet casings at the crime scene.

“The incident occurred during heavy traffic and we believe someone must have witnessed it. We hope they will come forward and assist us in our investigations,” he said.

ACP Arjunaidi said police did not rule out business rivalry as the motive for the murder.

Lim’s body was sent to the Sg Buloh Hospital for a post-mortem.

ACP Arjunaidi said police believed the gunman used a 9mm semi-automatic pistol but did not want to comment on whether it was the work of a hired killer.

He said the case was being investigated under Section 302 of the Penal Code for murder.
