Fatal school stabbing: Police to extend suspect's remand tomorrow

KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 20 — The police will apply for an extension of the remand order, which expires tomorrow, against a male student believed to be involved in the fatal stabbing of a 16-year-old female schoolmate at a school in Bandar Utama on Tuesday (October 14).

Petaling Jaya police chief ACP Shamsudin Mamat said the 14-year-old would be brought to the Petaling Jaya Magistrate’s Court tomorrow for the purpose.

“So far, the police have recorded statements of 148 individuals to assist in the investigation,” he said in a statement today.

Shamsudin added that the investigation paper will be submitted to the Deputy Public Prosecutor when completed, for further action.

On Wednesday (October 15), Magistrate Shahril Anuar Ahmad Mustapha issued a seven-day remand order against the student to assist the police investigations under Section 302 of the Penal Code for murder.

In the incident on Tuesday, it was reported that a female student died at the school after being stabbed in the chest and neck by a schoolmate.
