A-GC rejects Zamri Vinoth's representation to review public mischief charge
KUALA LUMPUR: The Attorney-General's Chambers (A-GC) has rejected a representation by independent preacher Zamri Vinoth to review his charge of making statements likely to cause public mischief.
The Attorney-General's Chambers (A-GC) has denied independent preacher Zamri Vinoth's request to review his charge of making statements likely to cause public mischief. During a case mention at the magistrate's court, deputy public prosecutor Nur Farhana Mohamad Poad informed the court that the prosecution will proceed with the trial, requesting the court to fix trial dates.
Zamri, also known as Muhammad Zamri Vinoth Kalimuthu, faces up to two years in prison, a fine, or both upon conviction under Section 505(b) of the Penal Code. The original charge was made on February 3 when Zamri allegedly posted a statement on Facebook that caused public mischief and incited an individual to commit an offence against public tranquillity.
The court has set trial dates for April 21 and 22 next year, with the prosecution expecting to call between six and seven witnesses.
