The Shah Alam Coroner’s Court has decided to end inquest proceedings into the death of fireman Muhd Adib, after five-months.

The Coroner says no more witness will be called in as the testimonies given so far are enough to deliver a verdict.

For now it's not clear when the verdict will be handed out. 

Adib sustained severe injuries during the Seafield temple violence in last November and succumbed to his injuries a month later.

An inquest was initiated as there were no conclusive findings into how Adib became wounded

The inquest started in February and 30 witnesses have testified.
