SHAH ALAM: The High Court here today acquitted three Bangladeshis of human trafficking.
Judicial commissioner Norsharidah Awang acquitted Mono Miah Siddikur Rahman, Nazma Akter and Md Mosaroff of 26 charges of human trafficking without calling for their defence.
Norsharidah said the prosecution had failed to prove a prima facie case against them on the charge of smuggling migrants into Malaysia.
She said it was instead shown that the foreigners had entered the country legally.
The three were said to have committed the offence at the Kuala Lumpur International Airport in Sepang between October 2014 and January 2016.
Counsel Harpal Singh and Nadia Syaza Rahizam represented the Bangladeshis while deputy public prosecutors Lokman Kassim and Alison Chan prosecuted. - FMT
