KUALA LUMPUR, Nov 27 — Corporal Jenain Subi remains a free man as the Court of Appeal upheld a High Court decision to acquit and discharge him on a charge of causing the death of 15-year-old schoolboy Aminulrasyid Amzah, three years ago.
A three-member panel chaired by Justice Datuk Balia Yusof Wahi unanimously dismissed the prosecution’s appeal against the High Court decision to set Jenain, 50, free.
Balia held that there was no merit in the prosecution’s appeal.
He said the High Court was not erroneous in its finding with regard to the issue of Corporal Jenain’s intention to cause the death of the boy.
The High Court, in acquitting Jenain in 2012, had ruled that Jenain did not have the intention to cause Aminulrasyid’s death but had shot at the car driven by the teenager with the intention to immobilise the vehicle. — Bernama
