husband retired and drove a taxi for a living, and she herself worked at a secondary school canteen, and also to help his younger siblings to go to university, and she counted on Zulfarhan to take care of his parents in their twilight years. Hawa said she wanted an appropriate punishment equal to the loss of her child who was precious to her, and she wanted the courts to mete out a punishment to serve as a signal to society at large to prevent similar tragedies from befalling on other families out there, and expressed her hope that other parents will never feel the pain of losing a child like she and her husband did. It was further revealed in court that the death of Zulfarhan took a heavy toll on his parents' healths, and for Hawa, developed severe cataract problems in 2018 due to constant crying, and she had high blood pressure. Hawa also became fearful of letting her other children leave the family home to live on their own or even pursue their studies away from her, out of the fear that they might meet the same fate as their eldest brother, and Hawa also did not want her other children to join any uniformed services, viewing them as the direct cause of the permanent loss of her beloved son. Zulfarhan's father lamented to the press that his son was killed over the baseless claims of a bomoh, and heavily blamed the bomoh for being the direct cause of his son's death, and he forgave the defendants for his son's death despite feeling disappointed towards the verdict, and he would leave it to the higher courts to decide on the outcome of his son's case.

Jamean, Zulfarhan's then girlfriend and final-year student in Human Resources, testified that her late boyfriend had called her in pain, stating that he was being assaulted by his friends over a stolen laptop and he denied taking the laptop. Mohd Syafiq Abdullah, Zulfarhan's 22-year-old roommate in the dormitory, was able to identify in court who were the defendants involved in the assault and scalding of Zulfarhan, as he witnessed these series of torture happening on Zulfarhan but he could not clearly recall where are the areas on Zulfarhan's body that got scalded. Muhammad Ilham Zamree, a 22-year-old friend of Zulfarhan since age 16, also testified that he saw Muhammad Najib, one of the six murder accused, carrying a steam iron on the day in question, and he only heard of but did not directly witness the scalding incident. 22-year-old Muhammad Aiman Aufa Asmadi Affendi, a friend of Zulfarhan, stated that he had sent two poison-pen letters to inform the university's top management about the abuse inflicted on Zulfarhan but he did not further intervene as he was fearful of meeting a similar predicament as Zulfarhan, and he regretted not doing so given that Zulfarhan died in the end despite his attempt to help him. Third-year Human Resource Management student Ahmad Senabil Mohamad, then 22 years old, also testified in court that he witnessed the assault and scalding of Zulfarhan and recounted to the court about what he saw.

also argued that being in a university dormitory room and not a remote jungle, Zulfarhan did not make even a phone call for his parents and accused the investigating officer for solely pinning the blame on the defendants, which he argued was not a symbol of justice and an act of unfairness where many factors contributed to the victim's death. However, his arguments attracted criticism from the judges and prosecution alike, as one of the judges questioned him for blaming the victim, while the prosecution rebutted that there was evidence that the appellants did not want to take Zulfarhan to the hospital because they did not want to face any retribution from the authorities, and the victim himself was confined in another room without any evidence of him gaining access to a phone. Mangai also shot down Mohd Zamri's arguments by adducing the evidence of Zulfarhan's absence from class and training due to the severity of his injuries and his poor physical condition, and even submitted the testimony of a e-hailing driver who brought Zulfarhan to the clinic and had to clean the backseat of his car, because of the stains of blood left on the seat previously occupied by the victim, questioning the six killers' willful blindness to his condition that was observed by the driver.

members of the Malaysian Armed Forces for the nation's defence. Minister Mohamed Khaled noted that ever since the murder of Zulfarhan, there were no more such incidents occurring at the university, suggesting that UPNM had learned from the incident and took appropriate action, and he additionally urged every parent to pay more attention to their children and ensure a healthier upbringing and learning to not allow them take up negative habits like bullying. In response, Mariam Mokhtar raised the fact that the relevant ministers and the vice-chancellor of UPNM did not seem to realize the gravity of bullying. She stated that the failure to properly address matters after the death sentence would not reassure any students of the university's current batch or their parents in relation to any anti-bullying policies of UPNM, and criticized the defence minister for providing a "brief, non-committal statement" about the crime. She alao added that there may be no reported cases of bullying, which did not equate to no bullying going on. She also stated that the lack of specific details on any measures undertaken to address the issue of bullying was also not satisfactory in reassuring the public and especially the parents who were concerned with their children's safety.

suspecting anything amiss, Dr Azfar became alarmed by the severity of the burn wounds after examining and stated that Zulfarhan needed medical treatment at a hospital, and Zulfarhan turned it down, stating that he would manage with dressing. Dr Azfar still chose to write a referral letter to a hospital, and continued to advise Zulfarhan's friends to bring him to the hospital. The doctor identified four of the murder accused – Muhammad Akmal, Muhammad Azamuddin, Muhammad Afif and Abdoul Hakeem – as the friends who brought Zulfarhan to the clinic. However, despite the doctor's advice, the four did not comply and never took Zulfarhan to hospital. Four days later, on 31 May 2017, Zulfarhan came to the clinic a second time, and he appeared weaker, fatigued and dehydrated. Dr Azfar questioned Zulfarhan why did he not go straight to hospital, and he replied that his condition was better and Zulfarhan wanted him to clean and apply bandages on the wounds on his thigh and backside, before he could go to hospital later. Dr Azfar, who still told Zulfarhan to go to hospital immediately, noted that Zulfarhan was accompanied by two friends, whom he identified as Muhammad Akmal and Muhammad Azamuddin, during his second consultation. A day after this, Zulfarhan died in

failing to save him, and he regularly prayed for him. Muhammad Akmal Akif, who consistently maintained his innocence, stated that the trial proceedings and investigations affected him and his family, because it was not a good thing to have a criminal charge hanging over him and since his father was a former police officer, some people had treated his family with contempt. It was further reported that aside from the witness Muhammad Aiman, Muhammad Akmal Akif had also tried to write letters to inform about Zulfarhan's condition and his need for medical attention. Muhammad Akmal Akif also hoped that people should not judge something based on the outlook alone, but to fully assess the entire case and turn of events first before making a conclusion. After his acquittal, Muhammad Akmal Akif and his family reportedly also met up with Zulfarhan's parents face to face, and he apologized to them. He also wished to return to the university to complete his studies, and hoped the university could allow him to return after it expelled him and the other 18 accused persons of the case. As of 2019, Muhammad Akmal Akif was working in small businesses, and had been active in association activities.

Zulfarhan for just one second before he stopped and left the room, and he stated that he shared a good relationship with the victim and never wanted to cause any serious injury or death. Muhammad Afif stated he remembered the iron was emitting steam but denied knowing the extent of the iron's temperature. The fifth accused, Mohamad Shobirin Sabri, stated that he only arrived at the dormitory room to check on Zulfarhan, after hearing that some people were restraining and interrogating him about the stolen laptop, and just as he was about to depart for his prayers, someone passed him the iron and told him to put the iron on Zulfarhan. Mohamad Shobirin admitted that he spontaneously put the steam iron on Zulfarhan's leg, and he heard Zulfarhan crying in pain, pleading with his captors to not hurt him. Mohamad Shobirin readily admitted that he had done wrong by placing the iron on Zulfarhan despite knowing how hot it was. Abdoul Hakeem Mohd Ali, the sixth accused charged with abetting the first five to commit murder, denied giving the orders to the first five accused to torture or scald Zulfarhan when he entered his defence against the abetment charge.

forensic pathologist Dr Salmah Arshad, out of the 90 burn marks on Zulfarhan's body, 29 were third-degree burn injuries, which were scientifically the most severe level of burns, with visible wet muscle tissue and bleeding, such that these would result in death even with medical intervention. DPP Mangai also submitted that it was not disputed that the six main offenders – Muhammad Akmal, Muhammad Azamuddin, Muhammad Najib, Muhammad Afif, Mohamad Shobirin and Abdoul Hakeem – were directly involved in the scalding of Zulfarhan, with Abdoul Hakeem egging the five on while they each took turns using the steam iron to viciously and intentionally torture Zulfarhan. The prosecution also brought the court's attention to the trauma and heartbreak which the victim's family underwent due to the death of Zulfarhan, and echoed the impassioned plea by Zulfarhan's mother for a just punishment as equal as the magnitude of the six killers' actions, and thus asked that the verdict of manslaughter and 18-year term of imprisonment for the six to be overturned in favour of the murder charge and death penalty.

He disagreed with the prosecution about the number of injuries or that he and the remaining five murder accused took turns to scald Zulfarhan. The second accused, Muhammad Azamuddin Mad Sofi, also denied on the stand that he used the iron on Zulfarhan's private parts or his shoulders and thigh 18 times, although he admitted to waving it the victim's shoulders but claimed that he never expected any severe harm arising from this, and Muhammad Azamuddin, who publicly apologized to Zulfarhan's parents in court, also denied the prosecution's contention that he and Muhammad Akmal tied up Zulfarhan with a taekwondo belt. The third accused, Muhammad Najib Mohd Razi, took the stand and stated he was studying at another student's room when Abdoul Hakeem suddenly asked him to come over and "do it once", and he was being passed a steam iron after following Abdoul Hakeem. Muhammad Najib stated he heard Zulfarhan screaming when he held the iron, which brought shock to him before he let go of the iron and go back to bed.

Additionally, the 12 other students accused of causing hurt to Zulfarhan were convicted as charged and each of them were sentenced to three years' imprisonment, although they remain out on bail while pending their appeal against sentence. Five of the six found guilty of manslaughter were similarly convicted and given three-year jail terms for the other charge of causing hurt to Zulfarhan. Before sentencing, Justice Azman described the acts of assaulting and causing Zulfarhan's death were nothing less than the actions of hardcore criminals despite the young age of the six convicted of killing Zulfarhan, and he expressed sadness for the six killers' family members, adding that they would have become officers in the armed forces if they had not done what they did, and they would not have pressed Zulfarhan with a hot iron if they had any shred of love and friendship for him, citing that any normal person would have felt how painful was it to get a single touch from an iron.

quarters of the university. They relentlessly assaulted him, wanting to force Zulfarhan to confess that he had stolen the laptop, but Zulfarhan once again denied stealing the laptop. On 22 May 2017, the next day, five of the main accused – Muhammad Akmal Zuhairi Azmal, Muhammad Azamuddin Mad Sofi, Muhammad Najib Mohd Razi, Muhammad Afif Najmudin Azahat and Abdoul Hakeem Mohd Ali – and a sixth person Mohamad Shobirin Sabri once again restrained Zulfarhan at the dormitory quarters of the university. This time round, things took the turn for the worse as the six men took out a steam iron to scald Zulfarhan on his body multiple times, including his private parts, and Zulfarhan, in a state of extreme pain, continued to deny stealing the laptop. This persisted for several hours before the six defendants finally stopped, leaving Zulfarhan with multiple burn wounds. Throughout the next few days, Zulfarhan did not report for class or training due to him being in a poor condition as a result of the burns.

and they were sufficient in the ordinary course of nature to cause death. Dr Salmah stated that even with medical intervention at that stage, the injuries were too serious and lethal and hence would inevitably lead to the death of the deceased. She also added that the fatal burn wounds were the direct cause of the swelling of the heart and kidney failure. However, the defence's forensic expert Dr Rohayu Shahar Adnan disputed the findings of Dr Salmah, stating that her microscopic examination did not show that the continuity of major burns suffered by the victim had solely caused Zulfarhan's death. With regards to the number of burn wounds found on Zulfarhan's corpse, Dr Rohayu commented that there was a possibility that more than 90 injuries were inflicted, or that the non-burn injuries had mixed up with the burn wounds, which may indicate there were less than 90 burn wounds in actuality.

Zulfarhan and used an iron to scald him multiple times all over his body (including his private parts), and the sixth accused Abdoul Hakeem had directed the five men to torture and interrogate Zulfarhan over the missing laptop, and these acts were extremely sadistic and callous. Despite seeing the victim wirthing in pain, the six accused mercilessly persisted in torturing him and caused over 90 burn injuries on Zulfarhan's body, which demonstrated their blatant disregard for human life and compassion. The judge also noted that the six killers had deliberately concealed the victim to cover up their violent acts and also did not take the victim to hospital. Justice Hadhariah admonished the six men for continuing to blame the victim and stated that in truth, all of this, including the torture and eventual death of Zulfarhan, originated from their evil deeds.

Mohamad Shobirin's lawyer Datuk Hazman Ahmad sought to reduce his client's sentence for it was manifestly excessive and using a hot iron could hardly be categorized as a criminal act, and even if it was indeed done, it was done without intent, noting that Mohamad Shobirin confessed to using the iron on Zulfarhan but only did it once. Although he argued against the manslaughter conviction, Amer Hamzah Arshad, who represented both Muhammad Akmal and Muhammad Azamuddin, asked that both his clients should be given a second chance and asked that their jail terms be reduced to 12 years each if the appellate court agreed with the conviction of manslaughter, since they both helped bring Zulfarhan to the clinic for treatment despite their heinous actions.

Zulfarhan's father also stated that while he had encountered the parents of the perpetrators several times in court, neither of them had came forward to apologize.

co-conspirators in the assault. Kalidas stated that it was hard to prove that all the appellants had taken part in attacking Zulfarhan, given that there were nearly 50 students residing in the dormitory when the incident occurred, and he asked the court to consider and determine whether they were all acting together as 32 people were arrested and remanded, with some of them turning prosecution witnesses against the 18 defendants charged in this case. He also stated that intimidation and bullying should not be permitted, but not following the crowd meant that they would be shunned, and might lead to weakening of friendships. However, the judges were critical of his arguments, and Justice

Dr Ahmad Yahaya, representing the council, responded to Suhakam's statement by describing the death penalty as a form of rehabilitation of society in general to cleanse society of serious crimes like murder, and they understood the grief of Zulfarhan's family. A criminal and human rights lawyer Dinesh Muthal stated that while he personally opposed the death penalty, he understood clearly the reasoning behind the court's decision, which he supported as a warning against those who were responsible for continuous streaks of bullying and torture. 556:

Justice Hadhariah added that the trial judge had also erred in stating that the court needed to identify the most serious injury to determine whether the six accused intended to cause death, given that for a Section 300(c) murder charge, which defined murder as an act of intentionally causing fatal injuries to a person, the prosecution's burden of proof in this case was whether the first six defendants had the intention to cause the injuries, which was more of a priority than the need to prove any intention to cause the injuries that resulted in Zulfarhan's death.

Defence Minister 794:

the case also showed that the problem of bullying was not solely about the victim and perpetrator but also those who did not intervene or condone it, and the school management and medical professionals who were involved one way or another in Zulfarhan's case would have had opportunities to intervene or avert the tragedy that befell on Zulfarhan, which signaled the need to stem the phenomenon of bullying.
