On 6 January 1998, two days after she went missing, the semi-naked corpse of 19-year-old Dini Haryati, an Indonesian student and intern hotel receptionist working in Singapore, was discovered in a forest at Woodlands, with injuries to her head, abdomen and neck. An autopsy report revealed that Dini had been raped before she died from a skull fracture. The police conducted extensive investigations to solve the case and sought information on any suspects behind the brutal rape-murder, which shocked the whole nation at that time. However, due to a lack of clues and suspects, the murder remains unsolved as of today.
