Two 16-year-old students suspected of involvement in a 14-year-old peer's death in Kuala Pilah are set to be charged in a magistrate's court, according to Negri Sembilan police chief Datuk Alzafny Ahmad. Both suspects will face charges under Section 302 of the Penal Code, combined with Section 34 of the same law. The investigation into the incident concluded last month, and the papers have been forwarded to the state prosecution office.

The suspects, who were seniors of the victim, were arrested on September 26 after the teenager was found unconscious at a sports school hostel in Kuala Pilah. He was subsequently taken to Hospital Tuanku Ampuan Najihah and later pronounced dead. The victim's remains were sent to Hospital Tuanku Ja afar, Seremban, for a post-mortem examination.
