Enough has been said and the priority should now be to give the police time and peace of mind to conduct thorough investigations to bring to book the culprits.
Let the police complete their investigations professionally so that the case can be successfully prosecuted. Sensationalism and speculation will not bring back the dead but justice must be allowed to take its course devoid of influence.
Let the police gather all the evidence they need to ensure a credible prosecution of the case. Attorney-General Tan Sri Abdul Gani Patail is right when he expressed concern over the murder probe blown out of proportion.
It is only common sense that statements made by several parties on the case would jeopardise investigations.
The media should report only the facts and refrain from speculation.
Like Gani, I also think everyone should follow the Inspector-General of Police Tan Sri Ismail Omar’s advice to cool down and leave the police to do their work.
Last Sunday, Ismail advised the media to stop reporting on speculation but to wait for police confirmation on any evidence.
The media had reported that two graves were found in the farm, the scene of the Banting murders.
Police have recovered bones and other evidence, and had picked up eight people, two of them lawyers, to help investigations.
