On April 4, the couple filed an application to review the Federal Court decision, claiming that they were wrongly sentenced to 20 years’ jail under Section 304 of the Penal Code. Sri Ram who was assisted by Hisyam Teh Poh Teik had submitted that the prosecution had relied on Section 300 of the Penal Code to prove its case for murder and that the High Court had relied on the same section when sentencing the couple to death.
