SHAH ALAM – The decision on whether Samirah Muzaffar and two teenagers – who are charged with murdering Cradle Fund chief executive officer (CEO) Nazrin Hassan – will be freed or ordered to defend themselves has been set on June 21.

Lawyer Rahmat Hazlan, representing the three accused, said he was informed of the new date by the court last May 17.

The hearing of the case began on September 6, 2019.
