PETALING JAYA - Police are anticipating the results of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) testing conducted on residents of Idaman Apartment in Damansara Damai as part of their investigation into the death of six-year-old Zayn Rayyan Abdul Matiin.
Selangor Police Chief Datuk Hussein Omar Khan said that the results are expected within two to three days.
"A total of 228 DNA samples were collected from residents," he confirmed earlier today.
On Sunday, authorities announced a mass DNA screening involving 228 individuals residing at Idaman Apartment.
