Police probe motive in boy's murder as suspect remains uncooperative
REMBAU: The motive behind the suspected murder of a six-year-old boy, whose body was found buried in Rompin, Jempol, remains undetermined, according to Negeri Sembilan police chief Datuk Ahmad Dzaffir Mohd Yussof. The main suspect, the boy's 36-year-old biological father, has been arrested. Preliminary investigations suggest the suspect was facing marital problems with his wife. 'The post-mortem began at noon today. We were informed that the suspect had domestic issues and is in the process of getting a divorce. He has not been cooperative in the investigation,' Ahmad Dzaffir told Bernama. The boy's body was discovered around 4.30 pm yesterday, with police believing he was buried after being murdered. The case is being investigated under Section 302 of the Penal Code for murder. Meanwhile, a sombre atmosphere surrounded the Rembau Hospital forensic unit as the boy's mother, accompanied by family members from Johor Bahru, arrived to identify the body. In a related development, Iskandar Puteri district police chief ACP M. Kumarasan confirmed that a man has been remanded for seven days from July 25 to assist in investigations. The suspect had initially filed a missing person report, claiming the child disappeared in Bukit Indah on July 24. Kumarasan stated that the suspect originally alleged the boy went missing on July 23 around 4 pm, saying he left the child alone in a car while buying food. The suspect is also being investigated under Section 182 of the Penal Code for lodging a false police report. – Bernama

Motoring influencer and brother jailed for false police report in Muar
MUAR: Motoring influencer Tengku Nizaruddin Tengku Zainudin, known as 'Ija,' and his younger brother, Tengku Abdul Aziz, were each sentenced to one month in jail and fined RM1,500 by the Magistrates' Court for lodging a false police report. Both pleaded guilty to their charges before Magistrate Suzana Mokhtar. Tengku Nizaruddin, 38, was charged under Section 109 of the Penal Code for abetting his brother in providing false information to police, claiming he had gone missing on July 14. His brother, Tengku Abdul Aziz, 30, was separately charged under Section 182 for filing the false report at Lenga police station. Deputy public prosecutors Nur Ameerah Allaudeen and Yasmin Mohd Piah argued for both imprisonment and a fine, stressing the offence wasted police and fire department resources. 'This case has drawn public attention, and we hope it serves as a deterrent,' they said. Defence lawyer Nor Hafizah Abdullah, representing both brothers, pleaded for leniency, stating they were remorseful, had apologised, and were first-time offenders. 'They are breadwinners with families and cooperated fully with authorities,' she said. The false report led to a search operation after Tengku Nizaruddin's car was found submerged in Sungai Tui, Bukit Kepong. Investigations later revealed he had staged the incident, left for Thailand via Padang Besar, and booked a flight to Hat Yai. CCTV footage also placed him at Seremban Bus Terminal. - Bernama
