Domino’s Pizza says leaving customer’s religious insult to cops, will act against staff for posting about case onlineAccording to the facts of the case, Shawal Senin got angry and assaulted the child by hand, a hammer, a clothes hanger, and a feather duster and also kicked him when the boy did not respond to his questions. His wife tried to stop him but was warned that she would face the same consequences.

“Application is dismissed and the death sentence is maintained,” said Chief Justice Tun Tengku Maimun Tuan Mat, who chaired the panel with Federal Court judges Datuk Zabariah Mohd Yusof and Datuk Abu Bakar Jais. Shawal’s counsel Bustaman Menon Abdul Hamid Menon pleaded for leniency to commute Shawal’s death sentence to a prison sentence of between 33 years and 35 years.

Deputy public prosecutor Dhiya Syazwani Izyan Mohd Akhir objected to Shawal’s application and asked the court to uphold the death sentence imposed on him.
