Thirteen teenagers aged 16 to 19 have been found guilty over the murder of 17-year-old Nazmie Aizzat Narul Azwan at the Lahad Datu vocational college in March last year.

The Tawau High Court ruled that all 13 accused were jointly guilty of the charge under Section 302 of the Penal Code, read with Section 34 for culpable homicide, Berita Harian reported.
