A 21-year-old man, Haiqal Haqimi Sumardi, was sentenced to two weeks in jail and fined RM1,500 by the Magistrates' Court in Kuching today for trespassing at a house under the control of Datuk Dayang Morliah Datuk Awang Daud's wife. Magistrate Nureina Syafika Mohd Najib handed down the sentence after Haiqal pleaded guilty to the charge under Section 447 of the Penal Code, which allows for imprisonment up to six months, a fine of up to RM3,000, or both.
The incident occurred on September 24 at 9:50am at a single-storey house in Taman Sri Sena. Dayang Morliah's brother, the complainant, noticed the accused entering the house without permission. A police report was filed, leading to Haiqal's arrest the following day, September 25. The case went viral on social media, with the accused allegedly planning to steal items from the house to sell and buy drugs. Tests revealed that Haiqal tested positive for amphetamine and methamphetamine.
The prosecution was handled by Deputy Public Prosecutor Muhammad Aidil Akmal Sharidan, while Haiqal was represented by counsel. Sgt Daniel Bong led the investigation into the case.
