She was 2nd of 3 children
Not to mention that Winnifred also came from a good family – her father Teo Koo Jim was a director of a timber firm, according to news reports.
At the time of the incident, he was in Munich on a business trip and cut it short to rush home.
The wealthy family also has an elder daughter and younger son.
The media had speculated that Winnifred’s murder could be linked to a business rivalry, but Mr Teo rubbished the claim.
Instead, the police believe the girl had unfortunately been preyed on by a sex pervert.
