Police officers were alerted on Friday to an object thought to be the missing arm of the decapitated body found floating in Whampoa River a day earlier.

Singapore Civil Defence Force officers were seen retrieving an object from the Geylang River near Block 63 Dakota Crescent on Friday evening.

A group of students had noticed what looked like an arm floating in the river. Fourteen-year-old Celine Tan, 14, told The Straits Times: "I saw what looked like an arm floating down the river. The crowd grew quickly and I quickly went home to alert my mother."

But it turned out to be a false alarm.

Headless body murder: Man arrested, husband sought by police

SINGAPORE: Police have arrested a 25-year old Indian national in connection with the murder of a woman, whose headless body was found at McNair Road.

The man, believed to be a friend of the victim and her husband, was nabbed on Wednesday at Sims Drive, where he worked.

Police have identified the victim as 33-year-old Indian national Jasvinder Kaur, and are now looking for another suspect, her husband, who has fled the country.

Ms Jasvinder’s headless body, with both hands dismembered at the wrists, was found in a canal on December 12.

Ms Jasvinder came to Singapore in September this year to join her husband, 33-year-old Indian national, Harvinder Singh.

She worked as a beautician, while her husband was in logistics.

She and her husband are believed to have lived along Balestier Road.

Police said they identified Ms Jasvinder through forensic evidence.

Shortly after the body was found, some 30 officers went to the Tuas South Incineration Plant, where rubbish from the Whampoa estate are dumped.

There, police spent some three hours looking through five tonnes of rubbish, hoping to locate the body parts.

But police said chances of finding the body parts are slim.

Harvinder Singh is now on the run, as he fled the scene at about 7am -- half an hour before police received a call about the discovery of the body.

Police said he left Singapore via Woodlands Checkpoint by bus.

They have asked their counterparts in neighbouring countries to trace his whereabouts.

Anyone with information on Harvinder Singh can contact the police at 1800-255-0000.

Members of the public can also submit the information online at the Singapore Police Force website.

Adrian Quek, deputy assistant commissioner of police at the Criminal Investigation Department, said: "This is indeed a highly sensational case which has caused some alarm among the public.

“Ever since the case was reported, police have been working around the clock to try to solve this dreadful crime."

The 25-year-old man arrested in connection with the murder will be charged in court on Friday. - CNA/nd

Neighbours said Madam Jasvinder Kaur and her husband, Mr Harvinder Singh, mostly kept to themselves and were well mannered save for an argument or two.

A neighbour, Mr Frankie Chai, said: "They didn't seem to be on good terms. I saw them cooking their own food separately in the shared kitchen."

The Chinese national added that he had heard the couple quarrelling on another night.

"I can't remember when exactly, but they were screaming and shouting in a foreign language for about 10 minutes."

Madam Kaur's headless body was found in Whampoa River last Thursday.

Gursharan Singh, believed to be the husband's friend, was arrested on Wednesday and charged with her murder yesterday.
