The Kuala Lumpur Sessions Court today set July 17 for the next mention date of a case involving a businessperson charged with sexually assaulting a woman with an object.
Judge Siti Aminah Ghazali fixed the date during the mention of the case today following a request from deputy public prosecutor Nidzuwan Abd Latip, who informed the court that the prosecution had submitted some of the case documents to the defence and would submit the remaining at the next mention date.
The businessperson, Wan Mohammad Ashraf Nasjaruddin, 42, who is former Shah Alam Bersatu logistics and security director, was charged with committing the act against a 25-year-old bank officer in a toilet of a hotel at Jalan Bukit Bintang at 5am on Jan 2 this year.
The charge, framed under Section 377CA of the Penal Code, provides imprisonment for up to 30 years and whipping, if found guilty.
Lawyers Mohamad Hanafiah Zakaria and Ishak Mohd Yusoff represented Wan Ashraf.
