KUALA LUMPUR: Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim will set a time to meet with the late Teoh Beng Hock's family next week.
"We will meet after the (Agong's) installation. This week we have the Conference of Rulers, then the installation, so next week we will arrange a time," he said in a brief response to reporters.
On Monday, Anwar via a post on X, said he would meet with Teoh's family to review their memorandum demanding justice over his death.
Teoh's body was discovered on the fifth-floor landing of Plaza Masalam in Shah Alam on July 16, 2009.
He was being questioned overnight by Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) officers on the 14th floor of the building.
At the time, he was the political aide to the then-Selangor executive councillor Ean Yong.
In 2011, a Royal Commission of Inquiry ruled suicide as a cause of death. However, in September 2014, the Court of Appeal ruled that Teoh's death was caused by multiple injuries from a fall from the building.
It ruled that it was accelerated by "an unlawful act or acts of a person or persons unknown".
The government had agreed to pay RM600,000 to Teoh's family as settlement in May 2015, after a civil suit initiated in 2012 for negligence resulting in his death.
