AGC rejects Zamri Vinoth’s bid to review charge over statement at KL rally

KUALA LUMPUR, Sept 18 — The Attorney General’s Chambers (AGC) has rejected a representation by independent preacher Zamri Vinoth regarding a charge of making a statement likely to cause public alarm in connection with a gathering held in front of a shopping complex in the capital.

Deputy Public Prosecutor Nur Farhana Mohamad Poad informed Magistrate Faezahnoor Hassan of the decision during proceedings today.

“Today was fixed for the decision on the representation, and we wish to inform the court that the representation has been rejected,” she said.

Lawyer Nur Shafiqah Shafiyah Omar, representing Zamri, subsequently requested that the court fix dates for the trial.

Nur Farhana said the prosecution was expected to call six to seven witnesses to testify.
