00:00 The family of murdered autistic child Zain Ryan Abdul Matin, who was found dead in December

00:07 last year, will continue to put up a brave front for his parents, who are currently under

00:13 remand. The boy's 56-year-old grandfather, Zahari Mohamed Riba, said the family will

00:19 be present at court on Thursday, as the remand period for the child's parents will end then.

00:26 "I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I don't want to work with you. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. We're all

00:33 strong."

00:41 Earlier on Wednesday, the Magistrate's Court recorded an objection by lawyers representing

00:45 the parents. Lawyer Mahmoud Jumad, who's representing Zain Ryan's mother, said the objection was

00:51 against an application by the police under Section 26 Bracket 1 of the Evidence Act to

00:57 obtain a guilty plea from his client. He said that, during the closed-door proceedings,

01:02 his client "did not make any plea" but instead provided testimony to Magistrate Zafran Rahim

01:09 Hamza. Zain Ryan's father was not brought to the court to attend the proceedings, which

01:15 lasted for an hour.

01:16 The court ruled that Zain Ryan's father did not make any plea.
