PETALING JAYA: Kuala Lumpur has secured their first Super League win this season after defeating Negri Sembilan 3-0 at the Tuanku Abdul Rahman Stadium in Paroi on Friday (June 21).
PUTRAJAYA: A former freelance computer technician escaped the gallows after the Federal Court here commuted his death sentence to 38 years in prison for kidnapping and murdering a glove factory manager whose body was found at a landfill in Sungai Siput, Perak, 17 years ago.
"The court hereby orders the death sentence imposed on the applicant to be commuted to 38 years in jail which should run concurrently from the date he was arrested for both the murder and kidnapping offences,” she said. The duo were also sent to the gallows for kidnapping and confining the victim for ransom of RM200,000 at the same house between 11pm on April 20, 2007, and 2.30pm on April 26, 2007.
Meanwhile, the bench also commuted the death sentence imposed on businessman Loh Yoon Fatt, 52, to 35 years in jail for murdering a business consultant using a steering wheel lock on Christmas Day 15 years ago.
