    RA-84-4-01/2023 (Mahkamah Majistret)

    Pengakuan salah pesalah kanak-kanak yang jelas dan pengakuan eksibit diterima; mahkamah menetapkan perintah non-custodial yang seimbang — khidmat masyarakat 120 jam untuk setiap pertuduhan rogol, denda RM6,000 untuk pertuduhan pengedaran pornografi kanak-kanak — kerana kepentingan pemulihan kanak-kanak, sokongan keluarga dan kepentingan awam memerlukan pengajaran serta pencegahan.

    AA-84-25-07/2023 (Mahkamah Majistret)
    Court
    Magistrates' Court
    Case number
    AA-84-25-07/2023 (Mahkamah Majistret)

    The court upheld the community service order (120 hours to be completed within six months with supervisory conditions) because, after weighing the seriousness of the offence and public interest against the accused's age, guilty plea, rehabilitative prospects, family circumstances and the child adviser report, rehabilitation via community service better serves both the child's future and public interest than institutionalisation; segregation is a last resort.
