Sister tells young nieces mother died of illness, withholds murder details

Norhazwani Ibrahim, a 35-year-old Customs Officer, was found murdered at government quarters in Jalan Kuarters KLIA, Nilai, Negri Sembilan, on Thursday. Her elder sister, Marliza Ibrahim, 48, told her two young nieces that their mother had died of an illness, rather than revealing the circumstances of her death. The children, aged five and six, were too young to understand the actual incident, Marliza said.

A post-mortem was conducted, and the remains will be brought back to their hometown for burial at the Tanjung Islamic Cemetery in Pengkalan Kubor. Norhazwani's husband was initially suspected of stabbing her to death, but the suspect has since been remanded for seven days to assist with investigations.
