JOHOR BARU: Only seven individuals have been remanded and are being investigated in connection with the deadly attack on the Ulu Tiram police station last Friday.
Johor police chief Commissioner M. Kumar said investigations were ongoing.
"So far, seven individuals are still under remand. The investigation into this case is ongoing.
"If there are any new developments, we will inform you. Until then, please allow the police to conduct our investigation," he said in a statement today.
Last Saturday, seven individuals were remanded for seven days to assist in the investigation into the attack on the Ulu Tiram police station.
The seven individuals included the lone attacker's five family members, aged between 19 and 62 years old. They were arrested last Friday, in a raid on the suspect's family home shortly after the incident.
Also remanded were the two students from a higher learning institution who were at the police station just prior to the incident. Investigators believe they are linked to the case.
In the 2.54am incident, two policemen, Constable Ahmad Azza Fahmi Azhar, 22, and Muhamad Syafiq Ahmad Said, 24, were killed by a 'lone wolf' attacker, aged 21. The suspect was later shot and killed at the scene.
Another policeman, Corporal Mohd Hasif Roslan, was seriously injured, but is now stable and receiving treatment at the Sultan Ismail Hospital.
The case is being investigated under Section 302 of the Penal Code.
