  "account": "In a Kuala Krai Magistrate Court on Wednesday, fish seller Ahmad Farid Tuan Mat was sentenced to RM5,000 in fines after pleading guilty to attempting to lure a woman, who is also his wife's sister, into his home to have sex with her while she was bathing. The incident occurred at around 11:30 am on September 28 at a house on Jalan Halimah Guchil.\n\nJudge Rais Imran Hamid also ordered Farid, 36, to be imprisoned for nine months if he fails to pay the fine. He was charged under Section 507A (1) of the Penal Code for causing fear, alarm or distress to the victim, which carries a maximum penalty of up to three years in prison or a fine or both.\n\nMazlinda Mohd Nor, the Deputy Prosecutor, requested a combined sentence, citing public interest and to serve as a warning to the man, who had not repeated the offense. However, Farid's lawyer, Farazalila Fauzi from the National Guaman Assistance Foundation (YBGK), requested a minimum fine due to his young child's age and his modest earnings as a fish seller, as well as the financial burden of caring for his 66-year-old cancer-stricken mother.",
