SHAH ALAM - A 22-year-old Chinese national and private university student pleaded not guilty in the Sessions Court here today to a charge of causing grievous injury by stabbing his former girlfriend in the neck last week.
The accused, You Wei, entered the plea after the charge was read to him in English by a court interpreter before Judge Norazlin Othman.
You Wei is accused of intentionally causing grievous hurt to the victim, also a Chinese national, by stabbing the left side of her neck with a knife.
The alleged offence took place around 6.30 pm on July 14 on the second floor of a private university in Bandar Sunway, Subang Jaya.
He was charged under Section 326 of the Penal Code, which carries a maximum sentence of 20 years' imprisonment and is liable to a fine or caning, upon conviction.
During today's proceedings, deputy public prosecutor Nurul Sofea Jaysal did not offer bail.
However, the accused's lawyer, Revin Kumar, appealed for the court's discretion to grant one, submitting that his client had fully cooperated during the investigation and was willing to comply with any additional conditions imposed.
"The accused is currently undergoing treatment for bipolar disorder at a private clinic and is on prescribed medication. He is also prepared to surrender his passport and report to the police as required,' he said.
The court subsequently allowed bail at RM20,000 with two sureties. The accused was also ordered to surrender his passport to the court, report to the nearest police station, and refrain from contacting the victim or any prosecution witnesses.
The case has been fixed for mention on Sept 17.
Previously, media reports stated that a 20-year-old female student sustained serious injuries after being stabbed in the neck at the university. - BERNAMA

'Flying passport': Two enforcement officers at JB-Singapore border arrested

JOHOR BARU: Two enforcement officers attached to the Customs, Immigration and Quarantine Complex (CIQ) in the Sultan Iskandar Building (BSI) here were arrested last night over their involvement in "flying passport" activities. Malaysia Border Control and Protection Agency (MCBA) BSI commander Roszita Dim said the two male suspects, aged 31 and 49, were arrested after an operation. "Flying passport" refers to the extension of a stay permit where the passport holder does not leave the country, which is a legal requirement. Usually, those involved facilitate the process by stamping a foreigner's passport without them leaving the country. During the operation, MCBA found several suspicious visitor data entries linked to the login information of the officers on duty, with the first detected at 7.30pm. The data belonged to foreigners who were previously flagged by the authorities. Roszita said another suspicious data entry was logged at 9pm linked to the user ID of a supervisor stationed at a counter for vehicles. "A search at the vehicle zone counter found RM2,800 in cash and two mobile phones in the possession of one of the suspects," she told a press conference. "Further investigation led to the discovery of 14 foreign passports hidden in a black bag in the ceiling of another counter." Eleven passports belonged to Chinese nationals, while another three belonged to Indonesians. Roszita added that further checks in the motorcycle zone found two more mobile phones belonging to the second suspect, which were also seized for further investigation. She said both suspects were immediately arrested and handed over to the Johor Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission at 10am today. "Investigations into both suspects are still ongoing, including the possibility of their involvement in a syndicate carrying out similar activities. "We have reported this case to the MCBA headquarters in Putrajaya," she said.

JOHOR BAHRU: Two enforcement officers were arrested at the Bangunan Sultan Iskandar (BSI) Customs, Immigration and Quarantine (CIQ) Complex last night over suspected involvement in a 'Flying Passport' misconduct. The practice involves illegally clearing passports without the holders being present. Malaysia Border Control and Protection Agency (AKPS) BSI CIQ commander Roszita Dim confirmed the arrests, stating that a 31-year-old officer and a 49-year-old supervisor were detained at 9 pm following surveillance by the agency's Compliance Unit. 'Surveillance at 7.30 pm detected suspicious visitor data entries using an officer's user ID at the car zone counter. Problematic foreign visitor records were also found, requiring correction by the supervisor,' Roszita said during a press conference. A search at the car counter revealed RM2,800 in cash and two mobile phones. Further interrogation led to the discovery of 11 Chinese and three Indonesian passports hidden in a black bag above another counter's ceiling. Two more phones were seized from the motorcycle zone supervisor's counter. Both suspects were handed over to the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) Johor this morning. The case has been reported to the AKPS Integrity Unit in Putrajaya. 'Our surveillance lasted about a week. Whether this involves a syndicate is still under investigation,' Roszita added. - Bernama

Further inspection at the car counter uncovered RM2,800 in cash and two mobile phones in the officer's possession.
