Kajang police chief Naazron Abdul Yusof said the suspect, 51, was arrested on Dec 30, together with the other two suspects, aged 16 and 20.

He said the other two suspects had also been released on bail.

The investigation paper was referred to the Selangor prosecutor’s office yesterday. However, Naazron said there were additional instructions to be followed, Bernama reported.

“The investigation paper will be resubmitted once action has been taken on these further instructions,” he said in a statement today.

The three suspects were remanded from Dec 31 to Jan 5, and an extension was granted until today.

The police are investigating the murder of the teenage girl under Section 302 of the Penal Code; a misunderstanding and drug overdose are said to be contributing factors to the teen’s death.
