  "account": "KUALA LUMPUR - Higher judicial authority postponed until January 12, 2027, the judicial review hearing of Altantuya Shaariibuu's father. The father's legal team, led by Sangeet Kaur Deo, requested the adjournment after the respondents asked for a reply to their affidavit. The respondents include the Inspector-General of Police, the Criminal Investigation Department director, the police, the Attorney-General, and the Malaysian government. Altantuya's father contended that the respondents did not provide information under Section 107 of the Criminal Procedure Code, but the police report lodged in 2018 sought an investigation into the murder order. The court adjourned the hearing to allow the respondents to file their response.",
