KOTA KINABALU, Oct 9 — Zara Qairina Mahathir's mother, Noraidah Lamat, maintains her belief that her daughter did not jump from the third floor of the school building. Noraidah described her daughter as cheerful, strong, and never one to give up, despite facing provocation from bullying and taunts from her peers. She dismissed the possibility that Zara Qairina had concealed emotional distress, stating that she had not noticed any changes in her daughter’s behaviour before the incident.
Noraidah also expressed her surprise and dissatisfaction with the police’s lack of clear communication regarding her daughter’s death and was unaware of the nationwide fundraising campaign under the Justice for Zara (JFZ) initiative.
