Man who bit cop will plead guilty Posted: 06 Nov 2012 09:19 PM PST VIDEO INSIDE Source: http://www.freemalaysiatoday.com/category/nation/2012/11/06/man-who-bit-cop-will-plead-guilty/(By Alyaa Azhar, 6/11/2012) A man who bit a policeman in a scuffle at a roadblock says he will plead guilty as it will save time and money. A man who bit a policeman in a scuffle said he will plead guilty as it will save him time and money. Last Sunday, Tan Chong Yean, 28, was pulled up at a roadblock for cutting a queue. Tan did not admit to jumping the queue and the police told him that if he had complaints he can tell the court about it. Suddenly, Tan found himself being kicked and the second time when he was kicked, he managed to get hold of a policeman's leg. He was then punched and fell to the ground. "The situation was quite chaotic, there were about four policemen involved and I wasn't sure who it was who held me, and who it was who handcuffed and pressed me down to the ground. "After I was handcuffed, I couldn't really move and as the handcuffs were too tight, I asked for the handcuffs to be loosened, but was ignored. I was dizzy by then and found myself biting one of the policemen but I wasn't sure which part exactly that I bit," Tan said. Tan was brought to the Petaling Jaya traffic police station and later to the Tun HS Lee police station and also the Dang Wangi police station. At all three police stations he was denied the right to lodge a police report. The next day he was charged at the Kuala Lumpurmagistrate's court. Segambut MP Lim Lip Eng said that Tan is going to plead guilty under the Penal Code (section 353) which reads: "Using criminal force to deter a public servant from executing his duty." "Although he is unhappy with his predicament, since he lives in Mantin and the case is in Kuala Lumpur, it is only going to cost him his time, money in hiring a lawyer and accommodation. Also, if Tan were to plead guilty, hopefully he would only be fined and not imprisoned. We also hope for eyewitnesses who were there taking pictures or videos to post them on the Internet to illustrate the real situation," Lim said.

Motion rejected on al-Qaeda's M'sian website Posted: 06 Nov 2012 06:03 AM PST Source: http://www.malaysiakini.com/news/213464(By Hazlan Zakaria, 5/11/2012) An opposition MP's has failed in his bid to move an emergency motion to discuss a Malaysian data centre's hosting of terrorist group al-Qaeda's Tawhed.net website and forum. Dewan Rakyat speaker Pandikar Amin Mulia decided in chambers today that "the matter is not urgent as per parliamentary guidelines". He also said there is no urgency for debate as the website is already being monitored and investigated by the relevant agencies. A copy of Pandikar's written reply was made available to the press by DAP's Segambut parliamentarian Lim Lip Eng. "The government must explain why our country is very welcoming of terrorists. I will not give up. I will try again," he vowed at a press conference in the Parliament lobby today. Lim had submitted the emergency motion under Standing Order 18(1) last Thursday, based on aStar report on the closure of the website. He also said that the government must explain why it is allowing terrorists into the country, as disclosed by Home Minister Hishammuddin Hussein last week. However, Hishammuddin had downplayed the threat to Malaysia, saying that terrorists only use the country for a stopover and that they are kept under surveillance. Lim argued that the government must come clean on the level of the threat to Malaysia, and that this is why the matter should be debated in the House.
