KOTA KINABALU (April 25): A salted fish seller, a barber, a waiter and two unemployed persons were each fined RM2,000, in default, four months' jail by a Magistrate's Court here today for a joint charge of rioting in the City area. Magistrate Dzul Elmy Yunus imposed the fine on Aldimin Kasim, 25, Nikazwan Sharuddin, 25, Azmil Ali, 18, Steven Chin Ying Lok, 25, and Junidi Joi Abdullah, 26, after they pleaded guilty to their charge under Section 147 of the Penal Code, read together with Section 34 of the same Code. The five male accused admitted to have assembled to carry out violence with an intention to cause hurt to two men at the roadside of Jalan Api-Api on February 25. The court heard that the incident happened due to misunderstanding between one of the victims and one of the accused persons while they were having fun at an entertainment outlet. They had promised to meet to settle the misunderstanding. During the meeting, one of the accused persons, who came with the other accused, had attacked a victim until he fell to the ground and the other victim went to stop the fight but he was hit by the other accused. In mitigation, all the accused persons, who were represented by counsel Lim Ming Zoong, prayed for a lenient sentence and submitted that they had regretted for what they had done. In reply, the prosecution urged the court to impose deterrent sentence on all the accused persons.
