POLICE have completed their investigation into an alleged domestic assault involving the wife of a Penang state assemblyman and submitted the investigation papers to the Deputy Public Prosecutor (DPP) for further action.
Penang police chief Datuk Dennis Lim confirmed that the investigation papers had been handed over to the DPP's office for further action and instructions.
"The investigation papers are now with the DPP," he said briefly when contacted.
Earlier this month, police were reported to have recorded statements from four individuals, including the assemblyman and his wife, in connection with the alleged domestic assault.
Lim had confirmed that a police report was lodged and that the case was being investigated under Section 323 of the Penal Code for voluntarily causing hurt. - November 9, 2026
