A CHINESE national was charged with the murder of his flatmate in a Jurong West flat on Wednesday.

The man, He Junbo, 20, allegedly stabbed Wu Yun Zhong, 18, also a Chinese national, to death sometime between 3pm and 5.45pm on Monday. Both men held work permits.

Their landlady found Wu's body lying face up clad only in his underwear, with multiple stab wounds to his upper body.
