Car cleaner’s death sentence for killing cousin upheld

: The Federal Court today upheld the death sentence of a car cleaner for murdering his female cousin five years ago.

Zulkarnain, 31, was appealing against a High Court decision, made on Oct 4, 2019, in sentencing him to death after finding him guilty of murdering Rabiatul Ain Mohamod, 27, in a house in Jalan Temerloh Makmur 3, Taman Temerloh Makmur, Temerloh, Pahang at 8.30pm on Oct 21, 2017.Based on the evidence, Zulkarnain, who stayed with the deceased and her husband, repeatedly stabbed the woman deceased and even took a break to have a drink in between the stabbings.

Lawyer K. Viknesvaran represented Zulkarnain, while deputy public prosecutor Samihah Rhazali appeared for the prosecution. Justice Tengku Maimun, who delivered the decision, however, substituted the murder charge against Ng, 47, to one of committing culpable homicide not amounting to murder and sentenced him to 20 years in jail, to begin from Oct 20, 2015, the date of his arrest.
