Kedah MB submits second representation to AGC, hearing postponed


SHAH ALAM: Today’s hearing of Datuk Seri Muhammad Sanusi Md Nor’s case, who is facing two charges of incitement during a political speech related to the appointment of the Selangor Mentri Besar and the formation of the Unity Government, has been postponed.

Judge Datuk Aslam Zainuddin granted the request for postponement by the Kedah Mentri Besar’s lawyer, Awang Armadajaya Awang Mahmud.

The lawyer informed the court that a second representation had been submitted to the Attorney General’s Chambers (AGC) seeking to drop the charges against Muhammad Sanusi, last week.

"I believe the AG needs time to consider this representation. Therefore, I request a two-month postponement to allow all parties to obtain complete information and evaluate the representation.

"If the court agrees with the defence's proposal, we request for a case management date to be set," said the lawyer. - Bernama
