An unemployed man was fined RM6,000, in default three months’ jail, by the sessions court here today for insulting the Yang di-Pertuan Agong Al-Sultan Abdullah Ri’ayatuddin Al-Mustafa Billah Shah through a posting on Facebook over the recent political turmoil in the country.
In the judgment, Edwin said the court viewed seriously the offence, adding that the freedom of expression should be exercised appropriately with the use of proper language, manners and morals. “In this case, the person insulted is our country’s ruler. It is clear that the language used in the posting is rude, harsh and offensive with the intention to bring down the dignity and an insult to our ruler,” he added.
