The remand order was obtained on Friday (June 27) and was issued by Sepang Sessions Court judge Azaraorani Abdul Rahman.

The three, a man and two women, were brought to the court complex at around 8.30am by the police and left just before 10am.

As of Thursday (June 26), a total of 14 people have had their statements recorded including the victim's roommates and a lecturer.
