MIRI: The last suspect in a July 8 bully case here has arrived at the Miri central police station (CPS).
The 20-year-old was picked up by Miri police from Tenom police station in Sabah where he was detained on Thursday.
The suspect arrived at the Miri CPS yesterday evening under the escort of three Miri Criminal Investigation Department (CID) personnel who went to Sabah on Friday to take him into their custody.
Meanwhile, earlier on Miri police had detained four other suspects who were aged between 15 and 20 years. One of them is still a student.
Miri police chief ACP Lim Meng Seah when met during the National Police Cadet 45th anniversary parade recently said they considered the case as solved with all suspects arrested.
A video of the bullying incident showing the five suspects kicking and punching a 13-year-old had gone viral in the social media last week, prompting police to conduct an investigation.
A police report on the incident has also been lodged by the victim’s mother.
The case is being investigated under Section 147 of the Penal Code for rioting.
