Remand extended for first suspect in Kuala Pilah student’s death
Negeri Sembilan police chief Alzafny Ahmad says the application to extend the suspect's remand was made at the Kuala Pilah magistrates' court this morning.
A remand extension has been granted for the first suspect involved in the investigation into the death of a Form 2 student in Kuala Pilah. The suspect, a Form 4 student, will remain detained until October 8, seven days beyond his initial six-day remand. This extension was approved by the Kuala Pilah magistrates' court following the application made by the investigating authorities.
As of now, a total of 69 statements have been recorded in connection with the case. Police chief Alzafny Ahmad revealed that five students had come forward, alleging that one of the detained suspects had bullied them. The incident in question occurred on September 23, when the victim, Idlan Fareeq Shahril, was found unconscious in his dormitory at a Kuala Pilah sports school.
He was subsequently rushed to Tuanku Ampuan Najihah Hospital, where he was pronounced dead. Idlan's aunt has accused a senior student of assaulting her nephew.
