Police Record Statements from 18 in Nilai Border Officer Death Probe

SEREMBAN — Royal Malaysian Police have recorded statements from 18 individuals as they continue their investigation into the death of a border control officer in Nilai, Negeri Sembilan. The deceased's husband, who is the primary suspect in the case, remains in police remand with his custody extended until October 22 to allow investigators more time to pursue their inquiries. Authorities have not yet disclosed further details regarding the nature of the death or the specific allegations being investigated. The extension of remand suggests police believe they require additional time to gather evidence and conduct further interviews related to the case. The investigation is ongoing, with police appealing for any additional information from the public that could assist in their inquiries.
