Petaling Jaya police chief Shamsudin Mamat said the cops confiscated two sharp weapons believed to have been used by the suspect, who has been detained. No one else was harmed.

The motive of the murder is still under investigation but Shamsudin said there was no element of bullying involved for now.

At a press conference outside the school, Shamsudin said the stabbing took place at one of the female toilets.

“A teacher heard a scream and tried to get help, but the incident had already occurred,” he said in explaining what is believed to have transpired.

He said the 14-year-old suspect, who is also a student at the school, would be remanded at the Petaling Jaya magistrates’ court tomorrow.

“They were both students at the school, so there’s a possibility that they knew one another though they may not have been friends,” he said, adding that statements would be taken from teachers and friends of the victim.

The victim’s body has been sent to Universiti Malaya Medical Centre for an autopsy.
