BUKIT MERTAJAM: The prosecution has rejected a representation by Umno Youth chief Datuk Dr Muhamad Akmal Saleh to drop a criminal charge against him for causing public fear.
State prosecution director Muna Mohamed Jaafar informed the court of the decision during proceedings this morning.
She told magistrate Roshayati Radellah that she had discussed the matter with Akmal's legal team, which would update the court on the next step.
Akmal's lead counsel, Aizat Azam, said the defence would submit a second representation directly to the Attorney-General (A-G).
