KUALA LUMPUR (Bernama) The defence in the trial of 18 Universiti Pertahanan Nasional Malaysia (UPNM) students over the murder of marine cadet officer Zulfarhan Osman Zulkarnain told the High Court on Wednesday (Sept 29) that there were contradicting statements by two medical experts on the cause of the deceased’s death.
