Meanwhile, Khairul Izaini's brother believes that the suspect, who he fondly refer as 'abang', will turn himself to the police soon
"I know him very well. My instincts say he will surrender to the police today or tomorrow. Not to worry, abang will not run away. He will return home and surrender himself to the authorities when the time comes," 30-year-old Khairul Mustaffa Khairuddin quoted as saying by NST Online in a report today, 10 November.
According to the stepfather's brother, he himself is trying to locate him.
"Although, I am aware that my life is also under threat similar to placing one foot in the grave, justice needed to be done for the sake of my nephew and family," Mustaffa said, adding that he had also received text messages from family members and relatives, who refused to accept and did not condone the alleged act on the victim.
"The family and I have been having sleepless nights for the past five days thinking over this case. We hope the case can be resolved as soon as possible," he said.
