KUALA LUMPUR: A trader has withdrawn the police report lodged against Wan Muhammad Azri Wan Deris, also known as Papagomo, for allegedly making seditious remarks linking the government with Israel and the West.
Lawyer Muhammad Rafique Rashid Ali, representing Wan Muhammad Azri, said that Hisham Sharudin, the first prosecution witness, lodged a police report indicating his intention to withdraw the earlier report after providing two hours of testimony in court on Thursday . "The initial police report against Wan Muhammad Azri that triggered this case is being heard in this court. I request the court's permission to use Section 425 of the Criminal Procedure Code to recall the witness so that a just decision can be made," he said during the hearing of the former Umno Youth exco member’s case on Thursday .
Section 425 stipulates that the court, at any stage of the trial, may recall any witness if their testimony is important before the court makes a decision. Deputy public prosecutor Mohamad Mustaffa P. Kunyalam argued that Hisham's retraction should not be considered at this stage to discontinue the prosecution's case.Malaysia, US and Australian armies successfully conducted Keris Strike in northern Sabah
