KUALA LUMPUR (Dec 19): Malaysian police plan to contact the family of Nora Anne Quoirin (pictured) to verify their claims made in a foreign media report that 'criminal element' was involved in the death of their teenage daughter, theSun reported yesterday.

Federal police CID director Comm Datuk Huzir Mohamed also told the local English daily that Malaysian police had already responded to their French counterparts in a letter explaining that there was no criminal element involved in the death of Nora.

The letter was sent by Malaysian police to the French Embassy in Singapore.

Yesterday, Bernama reported Negeri Sembilan police chief Mohamad Mat Yusop saying that a “complete post-mortem” along with Chemistry Department findings are expected to be "ready soon".

In an interview with Irish broadcaster RTE on Tuesday, Nora’s parents said they wanted “truth and justice” for their daughter.

Meabh Quoirin said it was “impossible physically mentally to imagine that she could have got any distance at all”.

“For us something very complex happened. We have insisted from the beginning that we believe there was a criminal element to what happened,” she added. 

Nora's father Sebastien Quoirin said they will be “pushing for an inquest into Nora's death to take place in Malaysia”.

"We are determined to have this inquest. We’re hopeful that the French, the Irish and British governments will support us,” he said.

Nora and her family arrived in Malaysia for a two-week holiday and checked into a Negeri Sembilan resort on Aug 3, before the teenager was reported missing in the early morning on the next day.

Her body was found on Aug 13 after disappearing for 10 days.
