Earlier, deputy public prosecutor Izalina Abdullah produced a small wooden table with a round top allegedly used by Afendi to hit his parents, Muhammad Agus @ Muhamed Ali Omar, 82, and Darlisma Njatu Saleh, 72. However, several other exhibits, including a knife, blade and clothes worn by the accused during the incident, were not brought to court today, prompting the adjournment of proceedings Afendi, unemployed, was charged in the magistrates' court on Dec 15, 2023 with murdering his parents at the house between 7.10pm and 7.20pm on Dec 9. The charges were framed under Section 302 of the Penal Code which provides for the death penalty, or 30 to 40 years' jail, and no fewer than 12 strokes of the cane, upon conviction. It was reported that the bodies of the couple were found in the living room of their home with several stab wounds. The case was then transferred to the High Court, where Afendi pleaded guilty to the double murder on Sept 6 last year. A psychiatric medical report from Hospital Bahagia Ulu Kinta in Ipoh, Perak, confirmed that Afendi was sane at the time the offences were committed. In proceedings today, Afendi maintained his plea after the charges were read to him. He was represented by lawyer Ruzaini Zulkifli.
