Negeri Sembilan police chief: 16-year-old remanded six days over murder probe into Kuala Pilah Form Two student’s death

On September 26, a 16-year-old Form Four student in Negeri Sembilan was remanded for six days, until October 1, in connection with a murder investigation, according to Negeri Sembilan police chief Datuk Alzafny Ahmad. The remand application was made at the Seremban Magistrates' Court. Police detained the teenager to assist investigations following the death's classification as murder under Section 302 of the Penal Code.

The incident allegedly occurred at the school hostel around 8pm on Friday, and the victim was later pronounced dead at Kuala Pilah Hospital. Police are still gathering evidence to determine the circumstances surrounding the death and any potential motive. The police chief urged the public not to speculate or share unverified information, as this could interfere with the investigation and impact the privacy of the families involved.

The Education Ministry has ordered an immediate audit of the school, expressing its willingness to cooperate fully with the police.
