KUALA LUMPUR: Police found a Myanmar national dead with stab wounds in his chest, at a double storey terrace house in Taman Midah, Cheras here.

Cheras police deputy chief Supt Abdul Rahim Hamzah Othman said they received a report from the man's house mate about 11.40 pm Saturday night and suspect the victim was involved in a fight.

"The victim, in his 20s, was found sprawled in the upstairs living room. We also discovered two knives at the scene," he said when contacted by Bernama, here Sunday.
