Federal Court Set Aug 13 To Deliver Verdict On AGC's Appeal In Najib's House Arrest Bid
PUTRAJAYA, Aug 7 (Bernama) -- The Federal Court has set Aug 13 to deliver its verdict on the Attorney-General's Chambers' (AGC) appeal concerning the existence of a purported additional document that permitted Datuk Seri Najib Razak to serve the remainder of his prison sentence under house arrest. The former Prime Minister's counsel, Tan Sri Muhammad Shafee Abdullah, confirmed with Bernama the decision date. On July 9 this year, the Federal Court's three-member bench comprising Chief Judge of Malaya Tan Sri Hasnah Mohammed Hashim and Federal Court judges Datuk Zabariah Mohd Yusof and Datuk Hanipah Farikullah reserved their decision in the appeal. On April 28, the Federal Court granted leave to the Attorney-General to appeal against the Court of Appeal's decision concerning the alleged additional document linked to Najib. On Jan 6, in a 2-1 majority decision, the Court of Appeal remitted Najib's application on the purported existence of an additional document that allows him to serve the remainder of his six-year prison sentence under house arrest, to the High Court for determination on its merits. This decision overturned the earlier ruling of the High Court, which had dismissed Najib's application for leave to commence judicial review concerning the alleged document. Najib is currently serving a six-year custodial sentence for his conviction in the SRC International Sdn Bhd case, following the Federal Court's dismissal of both his appeal and subsequent review application. In February 2023, the Pardons Board commuted Najib's original 12-year sentence to six years and reduced the RM210 million fine to RM50 million. -- BERNAMA

Trio suspected of feeding leftovers to homeless man released on police bail
SEREMBAN: Three teenagers believed to be involved in a viral video showing them giving leftovers to a homeless man recently were released on police bail yesterday. Seremban police chief Assistant Commissioner Mohamad Hatta Che Din said the boys, aged 14, 18 and 19, were brought from Johor to be remanded here on Tuesday for statement recording purposes. "A police report was lodged in this district," he told reporters here today. Hatta said the case was being investigated under Section 504 of the Penal Code, Section 14 of the Minor Offences Act 1955, and Section 233 of the Communications and Multimedia Act 1998. It was reported that the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC) had recorded the statements of the three boys, believed to be social media influencers, in connection with the circulation of the video. MCMC stated that the individuals were called in for questioning, and further investigations were conducted at the Iskandar Puteri district police headquarters in Johor on Aug 5, where three mobile phones and three SIM cards were seized to assist the probe. It said that the video allegedly contained excessively obscene content, which had triggered widespread anger and condemnation from netizens and touched on the sensitivities of Malaysia's multicultural society. According to the statement, the case is being investigated under Section 233 of the Communications and Multimedia Act 1998, which provides for a maximum fine of RM500,000, imprisonment of up to two years, or both, upon conviction. A Bernama check on TikTok found that several account holders had reposted the nearly two-minute video. In the video, three local young men are seen placing chicken bones in a rice packet and handing it to a homeless man sleeping on the pavement.
