From GMA News (Apr 6): Another body of suspected Kiram follower retrieved in Sabah
Authorities recovered the body of a suspected follower of Sulu Sultan Jamalul Kiram III from Kampung Lok Sambuang in Sabah late on Friday, a Malaysian news site said.
THe body was clad only in a pair of trousers and was handed over to the police at the Cenderawasih police station in Felda Sahabat, at 6 p.m., New Straits Times reported on Saturday.
"I have contacted my men on the ground and was told that there was no shooting," Sabah police commissioner Datuk Hamza Taib said.
He said they will investigate the death.
Malaysian forces have been flushing out Kiram's followers from various areas in Sabah following a three-week standoff that ended in deadly clashes on March 1 and 2.
On Friday, police said they detained a man and a woman who may have links to the Kiram followes.
The man was described as 38 years old and was picked up at Tanjung Aru in Kota Kinabalu. The woman was 45 years old and arrested at the operation area of Sungai Bilis in Felda Sahabat.
Sabah deputy police commissioner Datuk Tan Kok Liang said the woman had an identification document issued by the self-proclaimed Sulu Sultanate.
