SINGAPORE, June 15 — Two Pakistani men have been charged in the State Courts for the murder of 59-year-old Pakistani Muhammad Noor, whose dismembered body was found earlier this week.

Rasheed Muhammad, 43, and Ramzan Rizwan, 25, appeared in court yesterday looking solemn.

On Wednesday evening, a rag-and-bone man found a bloodied suitcase that contained the upper body of Muhammad Noor at Syed Alwi Road. His legs were found the next day in a piece of luggage at a Muslim cemetery at Jalan Kubor, a short distance from Syed Alwi Road.

According to court documents, the two men are alleged to have committed the murder between Tuesday about 12.01am and Wednesday about 6.04pm at 6B Rowell Road, Room 44.
