On 25 February 2006 at about 4am , RMP conducted a raid at a hotel in Kuala Lumpur . Two Singaporean men, one Malaysian man and three Malaysian women were arrested.
Amongst the six was 39-year-old Tan Chor Jin, who was on our wanted list for the murder of Lim Hock Soon at Serangoon Ave 4 on 15 February 2006 . He fled Singapore shortly after the murder, together with another accomplice, Ho Yueh Keong who is still at large.

All six subjects are currently in the custody of RMP. We are in contact with our Malaysian counterparts on the status of the two Singaporeans arrested.
Director Criminal Investigation Department, Senior Assistant Commissioner Lock Wai Han said, ＾Since the commission of the Serangoon murder, our officers have been working round the clock to establish the whereabouts of the two suspects.
