Nearly two weeks since the bloodied, topless body of Goh Eng Thiam was found on the kerb of the road at Lorong 23 Geylang, a suspect has been arrested by the police.
A 64-year-old man was apprehended in connection to the murder case that took place on July 9. Police were alerted to the scene near Victory Food Court where they found Goh lying motionless on the ground, sporting a deep cut from the left side of his ear to the top of his head.
It is believed that Goh died following a violent fight; investigators found several weapons such as a long wooden stick and a short knife at the scene.
