Zara Qairina’s mum disputes diary entries expressing ‘hate’ towards her, says handwriting not daughter’s

In the Coroner's Court in Kota Kinabalu, Noraidah Lamat contested the authenticity of diary entries allegedly written by her late daughter, Zara Qairina Mahathir, expressing hatred towards her.

Noraidah argued that anyone could have written the entries, and maintained that such sentiments did not reflect Zara's feelings.

The inquest, investigating Zara's death after being found unconscious near her school hostel, is set to continue on October 12.

KOTA KINABALU, Oct 10 — The mother of the late Zara Qairina Mahathir yesterday disputed the authenticity of several diary entries expressing hatred towards her, telling the Coroner's Court she had never seen her daughter write such things.

Noraidah Lamat, 46, said she disagreed that the entries must have been Zara Qairina's, since anyone could have written them.

During questioning by Inquest Conducting Officer Nahra Dollah on diary pages tendered as exhibits, Noraidah rejected the suggestion that entries bearing the phrase “Aku benci ibu” (I hate mother) reflected her daughter's feelings towards her.

“I disagree because I have never seen Zara Qairina's writing like this,” she said before Coroner Amir Shah Amir Hassan yesterday in the inquest into the teenager's death.

When Nahra suggested that, logically, only Zara Qairina herself would have reason to write such words, Noraidah disagreed, maintaining that she knew her daughter and did not rule out the possibility that the entries could have been written by someone else.

Meanwhile, when referred to the next sheet of paper, which bore her name and the words “tidak payah melahirkan aku” (you didn't have to give birth to me), Noraidah again disagreed that the entry reflected Zara Qairina's feelings towards her.

She conceded that the entry used coarse, abusive language but maintained that it was not her daughter's writing.

When asked whether Zara Qairina's friends might have written the entry, Noraidah said she had never been informed that any of her daughter's friends had problems with her or harboured any resentment towards her.

Noraidah also confirmed that Zara Qairina had a habit of keeping a diary, which mostly revolved around friendships and daily life.

However, she said she had never read entries containing negative feelings towards her, such as those tendered in the proceedings.

Zara Qairina died at Queen Elizabeth Hospital on July 17, 2025, a day after the Form One student was found unconscious near a drain at her school hostel at 4am.

The inquest proceedings resume on October 12. — Bernama

在哥打基纳巴卢的验尸法庭上，诺拉伊达·拉马特对据称由她已故女儿扎拉·凯里娜·马哈蒂尔所写的日记的真实性提出质疑，这些日记表达了对她的仇恨。

诺拉伊达认为任何人都可以写这些日记，并坚持认为这些话并不反映扎拉的感受。

对扎拉被发现昏迷在学校宿舍附近后死亡的调查，将于 10 月 12 日继续进行。

哥打基纳巴卢，10 月 10 日讯——已故 Zara Qairina Mahathir 的母亲昨日对几篇表达对她仇恨的日记内容的真实性提出质疑，并告诉验尸法庭，她从未见过女儿写过这样的东西。

46岁的诺拉伊达·拉马特表示，她不同意这些条目一定是扎拉·凯里娜写的，因为任何人都可以写这些条目。

在验尸官纳赫拉·多拉就作为证据提交的日记页进行询问时，诺拉伊达否认了日记中带有“Aku benci ibu”（我恨母亲）字样的条目反映了她女儿对她的感情的说法。

“我不同意，因为我从未见过 Zara Qairina 写出这样的文章，”她在昨天对这位少女死亡的调查中，在验尸官 Amir Shah Amir Hassan 面前说道。

当纳赫拉提出，从逻辑上讲，只有扎拉·凯里娜本人才有理由写下这些话时，诺拉伊达不同意，她坚持认为她了解自己的女儿，并不排除这些文字可能是其他人写的。

与此同时，当被问及下一张纸上写着她的名字和“tidak payah melahirkan aku”（你不必生下我）这句话时，诺拉伊达再次表示不同意该记录反映了扎拉·凯里娜对她的感情。

她承认该条目使用了粗俗、辱骂性的语言，但坚称这不是她女儿写的。

当被问及 Zara Qairina 的朋友是否有可能写了这篇文章时，Noraidah 表示，她从未被告知女儿的任何朋友与她有过节或对她怀有任何怨恨。

Noraidah 还证实，Zara Qairina 有写日记的习惯，日记的内容大多围绕友谊和日常生活。

然而，她说她从未读过包含对她负面情绪的文字，例如诉讼程序中提交的那些文字。

2025 年 7 月 17 日，Zara Qairina 在伊丽莎白女王医院去世。此前一天凌晨 4 点，这名初一学生被发现昏迷在学校宿舍附近的排水沟旁。
