KUALA LUMPUR, Nov 8 — The police have finalized their investigation regarding a woman known as “Inspector Sheila,” who is suspected of obstructing law enforcement during a check on a foreign man in Jalan Ipoh on Tuesday. Kuala Lumpur police chief Datuk Fadil Marsus stated that the investigation report will soon be submitted to the deputy prosecutor’s office for review.
