Ohh.. Her death sparks concern and frustration on student safety in universities
The University of Cyberjaya yesterday said it will strengthen its safety procedures following the death of a 20-year-old student at one of its shared residential facilities in Cyberjaya.
In a press statement, the university said it is working closely with security experts to review and enhance its existing safety protocols, Malay Mail quoted the statement yesterday, Thursday 26 June 2025.
“The safety of our students, their families, and the surrounding community remains our utmost priority,” it said.
The university also said that it is cooperating with the Royal Malaysia Police (PDRM), which is currently investigating the incident.
