2nd suspect in sports school murder probe remanded 6 more days

In Kuala Pilah, Negeri Sembilan, the second suspect in the murder of a Form 2 student at a sports school has been remanded for an additional six days, according to Kuala Pilah police chief Mustafah Hussin. The 16-year-old's first remand period ended on October 3rd, while a second remand application was submitted on Saturday. The Seremban magistrates' court granted the police permission to keep the Form 4 student in custody until October 9th, as reported by Berita Harian.

Mustafah added that the investigation paper was nearly finished and would be submitted to prosecutors the following evening. The incident occurred on September 25th when the Form 2 student was injured at the sports school in Kuala Pilah. He passed away at Tuanku Ampuan Najihah Hospital on the same day. Two suspects, both 16 years old, were arrested to aid in the murder investigation.

Last week, state police chief Alzafny Ahmad revealed that five students alleged they had been bullied by the first suspect in the past.
