KUALA LUMPUR, Aug 18 (Bernama) — The Attorney General’s Chambers (AGC) has decided to charge several suspects involved in the bullying case of Form One student Zara Qairina Mahathir in Sabah.
In a statement today, the AGC said it had examined the investigation papers into Zara Qairina’s death referred by the Royal Malaysia Police (PDRM) and decided to charge several suspects involved based on the available evidence.
“The decision to charge the suspects for the bullying offence was made as the charges will not interfere with the inquest proceedings that will take place,” the statement said.
The department also stressed that although the decision to charge the suspects for the bullying offence has been made, it will not affect the ongoing investigation by PDRM, including the inquest proceedings to be conducted in court.
