THE Kuala Lumpur High Court today upheld the three-year prison sentence and a RM50,000 fine imposed on former Sabah infrastructure development minister Peter Anthony for forging a letter for the purpose of cheating.

The court also allowed an application by lawyer S. Devanandan, representing Peter, to stay the execution of the jail sentence and conviction pending the disposal of an appeal at the Court of Appeal. The Malalap assemblyman was charged in his capacity as managing director of Syarikat Asli Jati Sdn Bhd with forging a letter from the office of the UMS deputy vice-chancellor, dated June 9, 2014, by inserting a false statement with the intention of using it for fraudulent purposes.
