The death of 13-year-old Zara Qairina Mahathir has shocked the nation amid growing outrage over suspected bullying at her school in Papar, Sabah.

A fourth voice recording, believed to be a conversation between the late Zara Qairina Mahathir, 13, and her mother, Noraidah Lamat, 45, has gone viral on social media.

The legal team representing the mother of the late Zara Qairina Mahathir believes that the emergence of the so-called “plot twist” narrative on social media since last week, alleging that the Form One student’s death was due to emotional distress caused by her own mother, indicates a possible leak of the case’s investigation file.
