PUTRAJAYA, Aug 6 (Bernama) -- The Attorney General’s Chambers (AGC) has urged the public to refrain from uploading or disseminating unverified information, including images, related to the death of Form One student Zara Qairina Mahathir.
According to the AGC, the circulation of unverified information and images related to the student, which are connected to the ongoing investigation by the authorities, could lead to public confusion.
It also urged the public to immediately cease such irresponsible actions.
“The dissemination of such content could potentially disrupt the smooth and effective progress of the investigation by the relevant authorities,” it said in a statement.
The AGC also noted that it received the full preliminary investigation report on the case at its Sabah branch on Aug 3, and at its headquarters in Putrajaya on Aug 4.
Zara Qairina, 13, was pronounced dead at Queen Elizabeth I Hospital in Kota Kinabalu, Sabah, on July 17.
She was taken to the hospital after being found unconscious in a drain near the dormitory of a religious school in Papar, at around 4 am on July 16.
Yesterday, the AGC has returned the full preliminary investigation report into the death of Zara Qairina to the Royal Malaysia Police (PDRM), for further action and completion.
