The criminal case of unauthorised renovation work at the heritage-listed Kun Iam Temple has been transferred to the Public Prosecution Office (MP) for further investigation, Judiciary Police (PJ) spokesman Ho Chan Nam said during a special press conference yesterday.
According to Ho, the Judiciary Police completed an investigation into the case on Tuesday following a report by the Cultural Affairs Bureau (IC) earlier this month.
