00:01The father of the student who was stabbed at a school in Banting on Monday has urged
00:06the public to refrain from speculation and allow the police to carry out their investigation.
00:12Mohamed Firouz Ibrahim said he was aware of allegations circulating online involving an
00:18alleged list of targets said to have been written by the female suspect, but stressed
00:23that the document has not been verified.
00:25He also insisted that his daughter was not involved in bullying and rarely left the
00:31house without being accompanied by either parent.
00:34He added that his family does not know the suspect's family.
00:38However, Mohamed Firouz said he is willing to cooperate with the police if investigations
00:43uncover any evidence of bullying and is open to meeting the suspect's family.
00:49Meanwhile, he said his daughter is expected to be discharged from hospital in about a
00:54week depending on her recovery.
00:56She remains traumatised but is in stable condition after undergoing four hours of treatment in
01:02the ICU to remove blood from her lungs.
01:06Describing the incident as heartbreaking, Mohamed Firouz expressed hope that it would serve as
01:12a lesson and called for stricter security measures in schools, including proper screening of visitors
01:17before they are allowed onto school premises.
01:20Earlier, the female suspect was remanded for four days until July 10th to assist in the police investigation.
