His sister Lee Lan said the autopsy was "successful" and the family has been briefed by Thai pathologist Dr Porntip Rojanasunand.

However, she declined to reveal details such as whether any new evidence had been uncovered to suggest the possibility of foul play.

"Wait for the inquest to start on Dec 9," she said, adding that she was unsure when the post-mortem report would be released.

Teoh's brother Beng Kee said the family did not understand certain aspects of Porntip's briefing as it consisted of medical jargon.

Teoh was found dead at the fifth floor landing of Plaza Masalam, Shah Alam on Aug 17, a day after he was called in for questioning by the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC).

Though the MACC had repeatedly alluded that Teoh committed suicide, his family refused

to believe this.

Following much public outcry, the government ordered an inquest into the death and Porntip’s testimony had prompted the family to seek a second post-mortem.

She had told the inquest that based on photographs and the first post-mortem report, she suspected that there was an 80 percent probability that it was homicide.

Remains will be buried tomorrow

The post-mortem was carried out by resident pathologist Dr Shahidan Md Noor. Dr Khairul Aznam and Dr Prashant Samberker, who testified during the inquest that Teoh died as a result of suicide, were also present.

Another pathologist, K Saravanan from Klang’s Tengku Ampuan Rahimah Hospital, was tasked with taking photographs of the procedure.
