Noraidah Lamat, 46, confirmed in court that the previous belief her daughter Zara Qairina had suffered beatings was actually explained by doctors as blood clots. "Based on what I have read, that is correct," she said when questioned by lawyer Abdul Fikry Jaafar Abdullah at Kota Kinabalu Coroner's Court. The family's earlier suggestion the bruises were caused by a blunt object was made before receiving information from police and after the post-mortem examination.
"That was because we had not received information from the investigating police officer and the post-mortem had not yet been carried out," she explained. When asked if she would accept the possibility Zara may have taken her own life, Noraidah did not directly answer and instead expressed hope for justice. She admitted she hadn't witnessed the incident on July 15, 2025, as she was at home and her understanding came from witness statements, WhatsApp discussions and her family's lawyers.
