Steven Sim, the Bukit Mertajam MP and deputy youth and sports minister, expressed shocked today by the High Court’s ruling to grant MA Abika full acquittal, calling the decision as “tragic as the death” of Adelina Sao. “I read with disappointment and frustration the recent court decision in the case of Adelina Sao,” the Bukit Mertajam’s statement said.
When the authorities broke into the home at Bukit Mertajam, Penang, they found her sleeping outside the house compound next to the owners’ dog.
