An unemployed man who allegedly hit his mother with a spanner while she was praying was ordered by the Kuala Kangsar Sessions Court today to be sent for psychiatric observation.
Judge Rohaida Ishak ordered Mohamad Helmi Hamzah, 29, to be sent to Hospital Bahagia Ulu Kinta Tanjung Rambutan following a request by deputy public prosecutor Muhammad Firdaus Nor Azlan.
Mohamad Helmi, who was unrepresented, raised his shoulders when the charge was read to him, but no plea was recorded.
He was charged under Section 324 of the Penal Code, read together with Section 326A of the same law, with voluntarily hurting Noraina Ismail, 54, with a dangerous weapon at about 6.30am on May 21 in a house in Kampung Bongor, Gerik, Perak.
The court set June 24 for mention.
