Mother of BU school murder victim vows to fight for justice

Wong Lee Ping, the mother of a 16-year-old student fatally stabbed at her Bandar Utama school, has vowed to relentlessly pursue justice for her daughter. She expressed deep sorrow over the court's decision to acquit the 15-year-old accused, stating that her daughter's bright future was tragically cut short. Wong recalled her daughter's disciplined, hardworking, and caring nature, lamenting that she had so many dreams and aspirations left unfulfilled.

Despite moving on by focusing on her job and daily routine, the loss continues to cause immense pain, which she understands will not diminish with time. The Shah Alam High Court recently acquitted the accused, finding that he was not of sound mind during the heinous act. However, he has been ordered to undergo psychiatric treatment at Hospital Bahagia Ulu Kinta in Perak.
