SEREMBAN: Police have recorded statements from 20 individuals as part of the investigation into the death of a Myanmar woman found with slash wounds at a foreign worker dormitory in Nilai.

He added that investigators are currently reviewing several closed-circuit television recordings obtained from the area.

The case is being investigated under Section 302 of the Penal Code for murder.
