The Chief Justice, in upholding the lower court’s decision, noted that Mr Ragil Putra Setia Sukmarahjana, who was also allegedly involved in Ms Teo’s death, is still a “live lead”.

to be acquitted of a murder charge was on Thursday dismissed by Chief Justice Sundaresh Menon.

A partial skull, which was later determined as likely to be of Ms Teo, was found in June 2010 during excavation works in Punggol. No other remains were found. The Chief Justice said a discharge not amounting to an acquittal struck the correct balance between the public interest in completing investigations into Ms Teo’s death and Ahmad’s personal interest in being freed from the hardships that come from having an unresolved murder charge hanging over him.

Police had questioned Ahmad after Ms Teo went missing in 2007, but he claimed then that he did not know what had happened to her.This time, he revealed that he was involved in the disposal of Ms Teo’s remains, that he was involved in the disposal of her possessions, and that he had not been truthful in 2007.– including one for dumping her corpse and one for giving false evidence to the police. The sentence was backdated to when he was arrested on Dec 15, 2020.
