KUALA LUMPUR: A warrant of arrest has been issued for the couple facing multiple charges over the theft of money from the bank accounts of three passengers and a flight steward from the missing Malaysia Airlines (MAS) flight MH370 after they failed to turn up in court for their trial Monday.

Sessions Court judge Norsharidah Awang granted an application by DPP Ahmad Fadhli Mahmud for an arrest warrant against the couple over their non-attendance in court to answer to their charges.
