PETALING JAYA: Several suspects believed to have bullied Form 1 student Zara Qairina Mahathir, whose death sparked national outrage, will be charged in court, the Attorney-General’s Chambers said.
In a statement, the AGC said the decision to haul these suspects to court was to ensure it did not disrupt the inquest into the teenager’s death.
The AGC’s decision to charge these people comes an hour after home minister Saifuddin Nasution Ismail told the Dewan Rakyat that the probe into Zara’s death revealed elements of bullying, neglect and sexual harassment.
