KAJANG, Nov 12 — The Sessions Court here today issued an arrest warrant for a businessman who failed to appear in court to face a charge of making offensive communications concerning the Royal Institution on his Facebook account.
Judge Khainur Aleeza Ismail issued the warrant after allowing an application by Deputy Public Prosecutor Faten Hadni Khairuddin, who informed the court that the 45-year-old man had evaded attempts by the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC) to serve him with a summons.
Earlier, Faten Hadni told the court that the individual named in the summons had refused to cooperate, failing to answer telephone calls from MCMC officers and declining to leave his house to accept the summons.
