Azman Syah Alias, known as PU Azman, was sentenced to six years in prison and one stroke of the cane for physically sexually assaulting a 17-year-old boy seven years ago. The court also ordered counseling and two years of police supervision after his sentence. A second charge will be taken into consideration.
: Former celebrity preacher Azman Syah Alias was sentenced to six years in prison and one stroke of the cane after pleading guilty in the Sessions Court today to an additional charge of committing physical sexual assault against a 17-year-old boy seven years ago.
During the same proceedings, the court ruled that the second charge against the actor from the drama 7 Hari Mencintaiku Musim Ketiga would be taken into consideration under Section 171A of the Criminal Procedure Code. He was charged under Section 14 of the Sexual Offenses Against Children Act 2017 which provides for a maximum prison sentence of 20 years and caning, upon conviction.
In the appeal proceedings, Azman Syah’s lawyer, Fahmi Adilah, appealed for the minimum sentence on several factors including the fact that his client is currently serving a prison sentence in Kajang. However, deputy public prosecutor Rasyidah Murni Adzmi urged the court to impose a sentence that prioritises public interest and serves as a deterrent.
On Dec 17, the Seremban Sessions Court sentenced him to seven years in prison and two strokes of the cane for four amended charges of physical sexual assault involving two teenage boys two years ago.
