TUARAN: Chief Minister Datuk Seri Hajiji Noor, on Sunday, urged the public to place full trust in the authorities investigating the recent death of Zara Qairina Mahathir.

He said the State Government shared the public’s concern and called on people to avoid speculation or assumptions while the investigation is ongoing.

“We should wait for the legal process to take its course, after which we will know the cause,” he said.
