A suspect is now in police custody charged with killing a Malaysian man at a logging camp in a remote part of Western, says

King, employed as a crane operator, was found dead with a knife wound to his neck at the place of work, Laki said.
“Police arrested the suspect upon a tip-off.
“He is now awaiting court appearance for mention at the Daru District Court.”
Laki said another man was in custody charged with the murder of a man at Gamaewe village in the Oriomo-Bituri local level government last week.
