PETALING JAYA: An unemployed man was sentenced to six years in prison and ordered to be given three strokes of the rotan by the sessions court in Shah Alam after he pleaded guilty to seriously injuring a woman and her son with a parang.
In meting out the sentence, judge Norazlin Othman said P Suzendran, 27, should be appropriately punished, even though his guilty plea had saved the court’s time, Bernama reported.
“The court has considered the factor of frequency in robbery cases and besides (that), your act was cruel,” she said.
Suzendran attacked a 37-year-old woman and her 11-year-old son at a fast-food chain outlet in Kota Kemuning, Shah Alam, at 7am on March 27 this year, wounding them in the head and hand.
He was charged with committing the offence together with A Alagendran and S Sathiyakumar, both aged 39, who pleaded not guilty when charged in court yesterday.
In separate proceedings, Norazlin ordered Suzendran to be jailed for three years and given one stroke of the rotan after he pleaded guilty to robbing a convenience store in Section 23, Shah Alam, of RM115 at 5.25am on April 11 this year.
The judge ordered him to serve the two prison terms consecutively. - FMT
