The court held that s.294 KTJ remains applicable despite the mandatory imprisonment wording in s.411 KK, supported by judicial precedent and parliamentary amendment to s.294; applying s.294 in this case, after weighing public interest against substantial mitigating factors (voluntary plea, personal circumstances, remand period, no prior record, dispute context), justified releasing the accused on a two‑year bond with RM7,000 security and reporting conditions as a lawful suspended sentence.
