Police have confirmed that the human skeletal remains found in bushes near a durian orchard close to the Penghulu Mukim Linau Complex in Jalan Yong Peng, Batu Pahat, on June 24, belong to a teenager reported missing since May 26.
Acting Batu Pahat District Police Chief, Supt Shahrulanuar Mushaddat Abdullah said that the confirmation of the identity of the remains as belonging to Hafiz Fauzan Abdul Halid, 16, was based on DNA profiling analysis done by the Johor branch of the Chemistry Department.
He said that DNA profiles obtained from blood samples taken for comparison purposes matched those of the biological parents with a 99.99pct probability of parentage with the remains found.
Meanwhile, his father, Abd Halid Sugiman, 44, expressed gratitude upon receiving confirmation of the DNA results after nearly a month of searching for his third child.
He said the remains will be claimed today (July 5) and buried on the same day at the Batu 7 Muslim Cemetery, Tongkang Pechah.
