PETALING JAYA, May 10 — A businessman was fined RM20,000, in lieu three months imprisonment, after the Sessions Court here found him guilty today on four counts of misusing the Kelantanese Royal title and Kerabat Diraja Long Yunus emblem five years ago.
According to the first two charges, Tengku Iskandar was accused of using the title “Yang Maha Mulia” without the consent of the Sultan of Kelantan on a letter of attorney dated August 31, 2014, which he signed as “Yang Maha Mulia Tengku Iskandar Tengku Ahmad Panglima Raja” and using the same title as a signatory on a purported Royal letter of authority .
As for the third charge, Tengku Iskandar is accused of representing the Kerabat Diraja Long Yunus to sign a letter of authority that bore the Kerabat Diraja Long Yunus emblem as its letterhead, with the intention of authorising one Chai Kok Leong, 51, to manage a Mercedes-Benz with the registration WA45J, which also bore the same emblem.
For both offences of using the emblem, Tengku Iskandar was charged under Section 48 of the Societies Act 1966, which is punishable by up to five years’ jail and a maximum RM15,000 fine, or both.
