Apologise, lawyer tells those who claimed volunteer killed Rocky

Shah Idham Nor Haikal Shaharom's attorney, Rafique Rashid Ali, addressed a press conference at the Klang court complex, demanding apologies from individuals who accused his client of murdering or torturing the dog named Rocky. Rafique clarified that Shah Idham's charge was not for killing or torturing the animal, but for animal cruelty.

He questioned where the terms "kill," "torture," "beat," or "cause death" appear in the charge sheet or the act that led to the alleged death of the dog. Rafique urged those who labeled Shah Idham as a cruel killer to apologize during the court session in Klang. Shah Idham had pleaded guilty to inflicting unnecessary pain or suffering on the dog by strangling it with a rope on July 29.

S Roghini Devi, the dog's owner, was also charged with animal cruelty and possessing the animal without a license.
