Suspect in Singapore market death still at large

By Furniture Today Staff -- Furniture Today, April 28, 2002

SINGAPORE — A man wanted in the death of a furniture exhibitor at the Singapore furniture show is still at large.

Authorities said the unidentified man fled the early March show after scuffling with Leonardus Van der Storm of Alu-Light Products in Holland.

Van der Strom fell to the floor of his exhibition space, hit his head on a table base and later died at a Singapore hospital.

Witnesses said the fight was over a design in the Alu-Light space the assailant thought had been copied from him.

The case was turned over to Interpol. A spokesman for the Singapore show said speculation is that the wanted man, who also is Dutch, is somewhere in Indonesia, where he was based.
