High Court overturns Coroner's decision in Zara’s inquest


KOTA KINABALU: The High Court here has set aside a Coroner's court decision to permit the lawyers of the five teenagers charged with bullying to be interested parties in the Zara Qairina Mahathir inquest.

However, High Court Justice Datuk Duncan Sikodol said the lawyers for the teenagers could make a fresh application with Coroner Amir Shah Amir Hassa after initial Coroner Azreena Aziz recused herself.
