## Pleaded for lighter sentence

Deputy public prosecutor Nor Farhana Mohd Poad urged the court to impose a sentence that would serve as a lesson to the accused.

Defence counsel M. Soosai Raj from the National Legal Aid Foundation requested for a lenient sentence, saying that Mohd Rashid is still supporting his two schoolgoing children.
