Recently I've seen a couple of applicants had decision made before PPR. But they received PPR within a few days. I would suggest don't worry or jump to conclusions until you get further correspondence from the VO.
Pray n hope for the best.
Also when did he/she received the remedical? Is it possible she missed the email from the VO?
As for Rabia Ali she actually got refused after remedical which is highly unlikely. Cos they ask for more documents or interview if they aren't satisfied. They never refuse straight away. So there is a high chance she missed that n crossed the deadline which led to a refusal.
So fingers crossed. The good news is on the way
