A woman was stabbed to death in Johor Baru while protecting her husband during a fight.
Chinese daily Lianhe Wanbao reported that the couple were in a nightclub at Jalan Abdullah Tahir with a relative when two men armed with knives entered the room.
It is believed that the two men turned up to confront them about gambling debts they had run up at the club earlier.
The quarrel escalated into a fight outside the establishment.
During the course of the fight, the 42-year-old hawker, Loh Kwai Lan, was stabbed multiple times while defending her husband.She suffered injuries in the front and back of her body. Her liver was also punctured.
Her husband, Wong Wee Ping, suffered minor injuries.
The incident occurred at approximately 1.40pm in the afternoon. The victim passed away while receiving treatment in a hospital.
The couple's only son, Wong Chun Kiat, 19, told the media he found out about his mother's death after Malaysian police contacted him. His father had only told him that there was an "accident" in Johor Baru.
The Malaysian police have classified this as murder.
According to the son, the couple frequented Johor Baru because the food and petrol there were cheaper.
It is believed that the victim, who is Malaysian, visited her relatives whenever she went to Johor Baru.
