In the first case, a computer science student of a university was fined RM4,000 for insulting the Yang di-Pertuan Agong and the Royal Malaysian Police on Twitter last year.
Deputy public prosecutor Najihah Farhana Che Awang had earlier sought a sentence to commensurate the crime as a lesson to Nur Azira, while defence counsel Mahajoth Singh requested a lighter sentence as the accused had cooperated throughout the investigation and regretted her actions. The accused, 22, from Negri Sembilan was charged with committing the offence at 8.31pm on April 17, 2021 by posting offensive remarks on his Twitter account @hkmlqmn18.
