PETALING JAYA: A Filipina maid was found murdered in her employer's home at Jalan Gasing near here.

The employer found out the victim's body in her bedroom at 11.45pm on Saturday after returning home from dinner.

Petaling Jaya OCPD Asst Comm Arjunaidi Mohamed said Sunday police believe the murderer was known to the 36-year-old victim as there were no signs of break-in.

Initial police forensics unit findings show the victim, who was fully clothed, had bruise marks on her neck, suggesting she was strangled, and blunt force trauma marks to the back of her head.

"Some items were reported missing and we are still investigating as no suspects have been identified so far," he said.

The victim had been working as a maid at home for the past 9 years.

The victim's body was sent to the University Malaya Medical Centre (PPUM) for post mortem.
