It has been confirmed by the police that the four bone fragments discovered at an abandoned house in Jalan Tongkang Pechah belong to the murdered single mother Mila Sharmilah Samsusah, also known as Bella.
The acting OCPD of Batu Pahat, Supt Shahrulanuar Mushaddat Abdullah Sani, stated that reports of the findings were received on Feb 28 from the public who were cleaning the area of the house.
The bones were then sent to the Chemical Department in Johor Baru for analysis, and based on the DNA test, they were found to match the skeletal remains previously discovered in the case.
“The Sultan Ismail Hospital (HSI) has informed the family members of these findings so that they can claim the remains,” he said in a statement on Saturday.
A former postman, Mohammad Haikal Mahfuz, was charged with the murder of his girlfriend, Bella, in Tongkang Pechah in the Magistrate’s Court on Jan 24.
The charge against him, under Section 302 of the Penal Code, carries the death penalty.
It was reported on Dec 14 that Bella, a single mother of two children, went missing after leaving her house in her boyfriend’s car wearing only a dark blue caftan to go to a laundromat.
