Zamri Vinoth’s trial set for April after representation rejected

On March 17, Zamri Vinoth was charged with creating a Facebook post on February 3 related to an assembly of illegal temples. The Attorney-General's Chambers denied his request to have the charge reviewed, resulting in his April trial. During case management, the prosecution announced they would present up to seven witnesses against the 41-year-old preacher.
