ANOTHER VICTORY.
Our client, a police personnel,l was given a discharge from the charge under Section 4(1) of the Computer Crimes Act,1997.
He was charged under the Act for allegedly lodging a police report using his fellow officer’s ID and password without his knowledge and consent.
A very technical offence.
A complete misunderstanding.
A technical glitch.
A computer error.
A fault of no one.
Our client was freed from the charge and he was very happy;otherwise, if found guilty, he can be liable to a fine of not exceeding RM150,000.00 or to an imprisonment for a term not exceeding ten years or to both. The Magistrate in MAHKAMAH MAJISTRET JAWI, PENANG, ordered a complete discharge of the offence charged against our client and ordered the bail amount to be returned forthwith.
A very happy ending.
