Now, I am very looking forward to joining Mr Kuching championships next month,' said Brandon via WhatsApp. The runners-up of his category were fellow Sarawakians: Mohamad Firdaus Mohamad Sazali, Asdilah Asmat Sefri, Suhardi Sulaiman and Daubline Timbol.

Ling (right) shakes hands with his counsel Abdul Fikry after his acquittal today. KOTA KINABALU (May 16): A cook was freed by a High Court here today from two counts of trafficking in ketamine and 3,4-Methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA) allegedly committed six years ago. Justice Datuk Celestina Steul Galid acquitted and discharged Ling Seng Hee, 30, from both the charges without calling for his defence. The judge held that the prosecution had failed to establish a prima facie case against the Sarawakian on both the charges. On the first to the second counts, Ling was accused of trafficking in 174.01 grams of ketamine and 50.8 grams of MDMA respectively, at the roadside near Kampung Air here on July 12, 2019. The prosecution had called seven witnesses to testify against him. Ling was represented by government-assigned counsel Abdul Fikry Jaafar Abdullah.
