AGC rayu keputusan bebas Wan Azri daripada tuduhan menghasut
Jabatan Peguam Negara berkata rayuan itu akan difailkan dalam masa terdekat.
Malaysia's influential politician Wan Azri Wan Deris faced accusations of making false allegations against the government in a Facebook post around 1pm on November 8, 2023. (Picture: Bernama) Klang: Political influence Wan Azri Wan Deris was acquitted and released by the Sessions Court here from the charge of making defamatory statements against the government.
Judge Siti Aminah Ghazali in her brief decision found the prosecution failed to prove the case against Azri beyond reasonable doubt. The court also ordered the return of his RM7,000 bail. Wan Azri was accused of stating that the government is pro-Israel and pro-West through the Facebook account of Halid Hamidi (Halid Mat Kool) around 1pm on November 8, 2023.
He was represented by lawyer Rafique Rashid Ali, while Deputy Prosecutor Mustaffa P Kunyalam and Nadia Izhar appeared for the prosecution. He was initially released by the Sessions Court last year, but the High Court ordered him to defend himself this year following the prosecution's appeal.
