Before leaping from the eighth story of Kuen Cheng Secondary School, a female Form 1 student posted a live farewell video on social media, uttering these final words. “I love you all, I just want to say goodbye.” The student, who talked only in English during the video, conveyed her appreciation for her friends, who had always supported her.
The event happened on the eighth level of the school’s teaching building on October 1, at approximately six o’clock in the evening. Regretfully, the student sustained severe injuries, and the medical staff declared him dead. The student’s death has been confirmed by the school administration through an official announcement posted on the school website. Additionally, the school announced that counselors will keep offering emotional and psychological support to other kids who may be impacted by the situation.
However, Brickfields district Chief Police, ACP Ku Mashariman bin Ku Mahmood, said that the student’s body has been transferred to the morgue for a post-mortem after the police got a report about the incident from the school. While the authorities look into the situation, the school administration also asked the public not to disseminate unconfirmed information.
