Meanwhile, a 37-year-old woman, Nurul Nur Syahirah Kamarudin, entered a not guilty plea to the same charges.

Both were charged for deceiving a 43-year-old woman into believing they could facilitate the purchase of a used Lexus RX350 for RM40,000, allegedly acquired during an auction held during the Asean Summit. The alleged offense took place at a location in Taman Sri Andalas between April 13 and 14. The crime falls under Section 420 of the Penal Code, in conjunction with Section 34 of the same code, with a potential penalty of 10 years in jail, whipping, and a fine.

The court permitted them both to be released on RM8,000 bail, with the added requirement of reporting to the nearest police station once a month. The case will be heard again on November 20. Earlier, both were also charged in the Shah Alam Magistrate's Court with allegedly cheating a victim in a separate vehicle auction scam involving RM30,000 in May.

Al Zulfadly pleaded guilty, while Nurul Nur Syahirah maintained her not guilty plea during the proceedings.
