The Teoh Beng Hock Association for Democratic Advancement has thrown its support behind the family of 13-year-old Zara Qairina Mahathir in urging authorities to conduct a full post-mortem and a judicial inquest into her death.

Association chairperson Ng Yap Hwa said an independent inquest was necessary as police investigations into Zara’s case appeared incomplete and raised serious concerns over professionalism.
