Supporters rallied outside the magistrate's court in Sepang on Monday, displaying support for Malaysia Border Control and Protection Agency (MCBA) director-general Datuk Seri Mohd Shuhaily Mohd Zain. The crowd, clad in black T-shirts featuring Shuhaily's image, expressed their admiration for him, declaring him a national hero. Zarif Syarafuddin, a 24-year-old supporter, emphasized that they were there to show their backing for Shuhaily, whom they hailed as a true hero.
The 40-year-old director-general appeared in court on September 28, pleading not guilty to two charges of voluntarily causing hurt to two Lance Corporals at Kuala Lumpur International Airport Terminal 1. The offenses, under Section 323 of the Penal Code, could result in up to one year in prison, a fine of RM2,000, or both if found guilty.
Shuhaily's legal representative, Datuk Rosal Azimin Ahmad, stated that the director-general would retain his position at MCBA unless otherwise instructed.
