"We will continue with the investigation into the case. The victim's four children at HTAR are still under treatment and their condition is stable," he said when contacted.

On Nov 12, Seetha, 32, her three daughters M. Darsini, M. Usarani and M. Navina and son M. Kugan, aged between three and eight, were found in a critical condition after they had drunk the weedkiller at their house in Jalan Batu 1/2, Jalan Kapar, here.

Seetha's sister Parvathy, 31, who lives nearby, rushed all five to the Kapar health clinic but their critical condition required them to be sent to HTAR.

On Nov 7, Seetha's 24-year-old brother was one of five men shot dead by police. They were believed to be on their way to stage a robbery in Sungai Keramat, Jalan Kapar, Klang Utama, here.
