KOTA BHARU, Nov 1 — The Attorney General’s Chambers (AGC) is considering whether to seek the reinstatement of a murder charge against a senior police officer in the case involving the death of student Muhammad Zaharif Affendi Muhd Zamrie, following the officer’s conviction on a lesser charge of causing death.

Attorney General Tan Sri Mohd Dusuki Mokhtar said the AGC had filed an appeal at the Court of Appeal last week against the Ipoh High Court’s decision, but was still examining the various aspects of the case before deciding on the arguments to be submitted.

He said he had discussed the matter with AGC Prosecution Division head Datuk Masri Mohd Daud and the head of its Trial and Appeals Division.

“We want to examine every aspect of this case, including whether we should submit arguments for the original murder charge to be reinstated, or take any other appropriate action based on the circumstances of the case and the court’s decision,” he said.

Mohd Dusuki was speaking to reporters after attending the launch of the Attorney-General’s Chambers Madani Adopted School programme at Sekolah Kebangsaan Pasir Hor here today.

Asked whether the AGC had identified any gaps or shortcomings in the High Court’s decision, Mohd Dusuki said it was too early to comment as the prosecution had yet to receive the full grounds of judgment.

On October 28, the Ipoh High Court sentenced DSP Mohd Nazri Abdul Razak, 47, to seven years and six months’ imprisonment after he pleaded guilty to an amended charge of causing the death of Muhammad Zaharif, three years ago.

The charge was amended from murder under Section 302 of the Penal Code to one under Section 304(b), which carries a maximum jail term of 10 years, a fine, or both, upon conviction.

The judge ordered Mohd Nazri to serve his sentence from December 15, 2023, the date of his arrest. He was also ordered to pay RM50,000 in compensation to the victim’s father, Muhd Zamrie Zainal Abidin, 58, or face an additional year in prison if he failed to do so.

Mohd Nazri was accused of causing the death of Muhammad Zaharif, 17, near Sekolah Menengah Kebangsaan Jati in Ipoh between 11.55am and 12.32pm on December 15, 2023.

He was initially charged under Section 302 of the Penal Code, which carries the death penalty or imprisonment of between 30 and 40 years and at least 12 strokes of the cane upon conviction. — Bernama

哥打巴鲁，11月1日讯——总检察署正在考虑是否恢复对一名高级警官的谋杀指控，该警官涉嫌导致学生穆罕默德·扎哈里夫·阿芬迪·穆罕默德·扎姆里死亡。此前，该警官因过失致人死亡罪被定罪。

总检察长丹斯里莫哈末杜苏基莫克塔尔表示，总检察署已于上周向上诉法院提起上诉，反对怡保高等法院的裁决，但仍在审查案件的各个方面，之后才会决定提交哪些论点。

他说他已与总检察署检控部门主管拿督马斯里·莫哈末·达乌德及其审判和上诉部门主管讨论过此事。

他说：“我们希望审查此案的方方面面，包括是否应该提出恢复原谋杀指控的论点，或者根据案件情况和法院的裁决采取任何其他适当的行动。”

莫哈末·杜苏基今天在出席总检察署马达尼领养学校计划在巴西霍尔国民学校的启动仪式后，对记者发表了讲话。

当被问及总检察署是否发现高等法院的判决有任何漏洞或不足时，莫哈末·杜苏基表示，现在评论还为时过早，因为检方尚未收到完整的判决理由。

10月28日，怡保高等法院判处47岁的副警司莫哈末·纳兹里·阿卜杜勒·拉扎克七年零六个月监禁，此前他承认了三年前导致穆罕默德·扎哈里夫死亡的修改后的指控。

该指控从《刑法典》第 302 条规定的谋杀罪改为第 304(b) 条规定的谋杀罪，该条规定，一旦定罪，最高可判处 10 年监禁、罚款或两者并罚。
