Chinese national student charged with stabbing ex-girlfriend, brother
Chen Jun is accused of committing the offences at a house in Taman Sri Bintang, Kepong, at 5am on Sept 29.
On September 29, a 20-year-old Chinese student named Chen Jun appeared in Kuala Lumpur's sessions court to face two charges of causing grievous hurt. Chen allegedly stabbed his ex-girlfriend, Leong Kai Ting, 21, and her younger brother, Leong Shun Jie, 18, with a knife at a house in Taman Sri Bintang, Kepong, early in the morning.
The charges stem from Section 326 of the Penal Code, which carries a potential 20-year prison sentence, fine, or caning. Prosecutors did not seek bail for Chen, arguing the crimes are non-bailable. If granted bail, it would be set at RM8,000 with two local sureties and the accused surrendering his passport. Chen's lawyer, Ling Yee Siew, requested a lower bail amount, citing her client's pursuit of a finance degree and a medical report indicating depression.
The lawyer also mentioned Chen's leg injury from self-harm, seeking treatment for the injury. Judge Suhaila Haron granted Chen bail of RM8,000 with two Malaysian sureties, subject to prosecution conditions, and set the next court date for November 11.
