Keputusan inkues kematian Zara diketahui 15 Jan

Kuala Lumpur: The coroner's court in Kota Kinabalu is set to announce its verdict on the cause of death for Zara Qairina Mahathir on January 15, 2026. The court is expected to reach its decision after consulting with all parties involved in the case and requesting written submissions from each party either before or on January 15. The inquest proceedings concluded last month after a 96-day duration.

Zara passed away at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital in Kota Kinabalu on July 17, 2025, just a day after being found unconscious near a sewage drain in her school hostel in Papar. Her body was exhumed on August 9 and a post-mortem examination was carried out by the Forensic Medicine Department of the same hospital a day later. On August 20, five minors under the ages of A, B, C, D, and E were charged in the Children's Court in Kota Kinabalu for allegedly uttering false statements about Zara.
