Nine men were charged in the Sessions Court in Sungai Petani with being members of an organised crime group called 'Geng Suria', according to prosecutors. The accused are Thayalan, A. Tana Balan, Muhamad Rizwan Abd Jalil, G. Sritharan, B. Saranraj, A. Simon, G. Suria Prasad, A. Suresh, and Kavines. The charges stem from their alleged membership in the gang at an unnumbered house on Jalan Sekerat, Pekan Lama, between December 2024 and April 2025.
They face up to 20 years in prison if convicted under Section 130V(1) of the Penal Code. The prosecution was handled by Deputy Public Prosecutors Yazid Mustaqim Roslan and Mohd Fakhrurrazi Ahmad Salim. The nine accused did not enter pleas, and the court denied them bail, setting November 17 for the next court appearance.
