Negri Sembilan's Education Department is investigating claims that students served alcohol at a school dinner event organized by the school's alumni association on September 5. The department clarified that students should not be involved in activities involving the handling or serving of alcoholic beverages. The event was reportedly held outside the school premises, and both the school and the association denied student involvement in serving alcohol, according to a statement from the department.

The investigation, which began through the Public Complaint Management System, will also look into the school's adherence to procedures.
