PETALING JAYA: No one has come forward with information on the murder of six-year-old autistic boy Zayn Rayyan Abdul Matiin despite the RM20,000 reward offered, says Comm Datuk Hussein Omar Khan.
The Selangor police chief said police had been waiting for someone to come forward ever since the Malaysian Crime Prevention Foundation (MCPF) Selangor chapter made the offer earlier this month.
