KLANG: As the Sessions Court remained calm this morning, a 24-year-old man associated with the death of a dog named Rocky was set to be charged. Law enforcement had increased security presence outside the court, with roadblocks in place. One gate was closed, forcing visitors to pass through a checkpoint before entering the complex.
Police were seen entering the area. Selangor police chief Datuk Shazeli Kahar had warned the public against any rallies or demonstrations related to Rocky's death after an enforcement operation in Port Klang. He stated that the investigation was complete and that the responsible parties had been identified, with charges set to be announced at the magistrate's court today.
The accused, Muhammad Shah Hizam, had been notified to appear in court at 9am. The video circulating online showed several people restraining and pulling Rocky by the neck during an operation on July 29 at Taman Telok Gedong Indah. Besides Shah, a woman connected to the incident is facing charges at two different courts, with both appearances scheduled for today. The specific charges against them have not been disclosed yet.
