Despite the defendant's guilty plea and personal mitigation, the court held that the unprovoked repeated physical assault causing facial lacerations and the weight of public interest and deterrence required a custodial sentence; a short term of imprisonment was proportionate and appropriate under s.323.

The court found the accused guilty on his admission and, balancing mitigation (guilty plea, first offender, personal circumstances) against aggravating factors (3.53g methamphetamine, seven small packets indicating distribution), held public interest and deterrence required a custodial sentence; imposed 30 months imprisonment from date of arrest and ordered exhibits to be returned to the prosecution for disposal after the appeal period.

Court upheld conviction and sentence of 5 years imprisonment from date of arrest and one stroke of rotan because the sentence is within statutory limits under s380 Kanun Keseksaan, was imposed after considering guilty plea, mitigation and aggravating factors including antecedents and public interest; no legal error or manifest excess found to warrant appellate interference.
16 Dec 2025
Accused's guilty plea was voluntary, facts and exhibits established elements of offences; under s305 KTJ conviction stands and appeal against conviction is barred; sentencing was within judicial discretion after weighing mitigation, aggravation and public interest; a custodial element (one month imprisonment) plus fines was a proportionate, non-excessive sentence given use of a dangerous extendable metal rod and property damage, therefore conviction and sentence are upheld.

Conviction is valid because the accused pleaded guilty voluntarily and with understanding via a Tamil interpreter and admitted facts; given the weights (0.78g heroin and 1.63g monoacetylmorphines) and that both items were from the same seized package constituting one transaction, concurrent sentences are appropriate; a custodial sentence of 16 months from date of arrest for each count (to run concurrently) falls within statutory limits and properly balances mitigating factors against public interest in deterring drug offences.

Court accepted the defendant's voluntary early guilty plea and mitigation but, balancing seriousness of attempted kidnapping of a child, public interest and need for deterrence, convicted under Section 363 read with Section 511 Kanun Keseksaan and imposed 18 months imprisonment from date of arrest (22.10.2024) and a fine of RM10,000 with 12 months default, as a proportionate and lawful sentence.

The applicant failed to demonstrate irreparable harm, the balance of convenience and public interest favoured refusal of the stay, no special circumstances were established, and the travel ban was lawfully imposed under statutory powers; therefore the interlocutory stay application was dismissed.
3 Oct 2025
Given accused was a first offender who pleaded guilty immediately, admitted facts and exhibits, and mitigation outweighed prosecution's aggravation which lacked compelling reasons for imprisonment, the court exercised discretion under s.323 Kanun Keseksaan to impose a fine of RM1,500 with default 5 months imprisonment as appropriate and proportionate.
26 Aug 2025
The court convicted the accused on her unreserved guilty pleas and imposed imprisonment because the deliberate misuse of Lembaga Zakat Selangor funds totalling RM170,575 was a serious breach of public trust; while the guilty plea and personal mitigations were considered, public interest, deterrence and the scale of misappropriation warranted custodial sentences of six months (first count) and one year (second count), with postponement of execution of the sentences granted.
