SEGAMAT, Dec 19 — The case of the despatch rider, S. Teeran, who was charged with supporting and possessing items linked to the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam last month, has been transferred to the Kuala Lumpur High Court. Sessions judge, Rasidah Roslee, made the decision after hearing submissions from Deputy Public Prosecution Mohd Firdaus Abu Hanipah to have the case transferred in accordance with Section 177A of the Criminal Procedure Code.At today’s proceeding, lawyer A.Mathan representing the accused requested an oral argument for his client’s bail but this was objected by the court on the grounds that the Sessions Court does not have the jurisdiction to hear bail pleas.
