Five minutes later, all vehicles transporting investigators and the Royal Malaysia Police Forensic Unit (PDRM) departed the scene, and shortly after, the road, which had been tightly monitored by the police since 9.45am, was fully reopened.

Based on observations at the scene, only Zayn Rayyan's mother, who is also a witness and currently in police custody, was taken to the location for the reenactment.

Until the investigation process ended, the presence of Zayn Rayyan's father, who is also in police remand, was not seen.
