KUALA LUMPUR — The Attorney General’s Chambers (AGC) has urged the public not to speculate on the fatal shooting of three individuals in Durian Tunggal, Melaka.
In a statement today, the AGC warned that assumptions or the dissemination of unverified information could undermine investigations and erode public confidence in the justice system.
The department also assured that any prosecution decisions would be made based on legal provisions and acceptable evidence, without external pressure or public sentiment.
"All parties are reminded to respect the judicial process for the sake of justice and all parties involved. This department and the PDRM will work closely to examine this case thoroughly, and any further developments will be communicated in due course," the statement read, according to Bernama.
On Dec 16, the AGC ordered for the investigation into the case to be reclassified under Section 302 of the Penal Code, after receiving a briefing from the PDRM.
Earlier, on the same day, Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim said during an oral question-and-answer session in the Dewan Negara that the case would be investigated thoroughly and transparently by the PDRM.
Inspector-General of Police Datuk Seri Mohd Khalid Ismail also assured that the police would carry out the investigation with integrity and in accordance with the law to ensure justice for all parties.
The incident occurred on Nov 24, when three men, aged between 24 and 29, were shot dead at an oil palm plantation in Durian Tunggal at about 4.30 am. This was after one of them allegedly swung a machete at a police corporal, seriously injuring him in the left arm.
However, on Dec 3, the family members of the three men denied allegations that the deceased had acted violently against the police. Following this, Bukit Aman Criminal Investigation Department Director Datuk M. Kumar confirmed that a special team had been formed to investigate the allegations raised by the family.— December 18, 2025
