SEREMBAN, Nov 4 — Police in Negeri Sembilan have reopened investigations into the death of a Year Four pupil found unconscious in a Senawang school toilet last month, following new directives from the Attorney General’s Chambers (AGC)
State police chief Datuk Alzafny Ahmad said there were matters that required further action before the investigation paper could be resubmitted, Berita Harian reported
He also said police would announce the outcome of the investigation once instructions were received from the relevant authorities.
“As the investigation paper is still being finalised, we urge all parties to refrain from making statements that could affect the investigation process,” he said in a statement today.
Earlier reports said that police had completed their investigation into the case after conducting a thorough probe involving several forensic and technical experts.
However, the victim’s father, Muhammad Hafizuddin Abdullah, 40, told a press conference yesterday that he had been given a notebook containing death threats directed at his son.
He also questioned the progress of the investigation, claiming he had received no updates since his last meeting with an investigating officer on October 5.
Initial reports last month said the boy’s death was caused by pressure to the neck, and police had opened an investigation under Section 507C of the Penal Code for bullying through communication.
