The Attorney-General of Malaysia has affirmed the legality of the Negeri Sembilan ruler's decision to dismiss 10 state exco members, citing constitutional provisions that grant the ruler such power. Separately, police in Negeri Sembilan have reclassified the death of a Form 2 student at a sports school as murder, detaining a 16-year-old student and prompting an immediate safety audit by the Education Minister.
