The Court of Appeal here today sentenced a homeless man to death after reinstating his charge for the murder of a friend.
Justice Yaacob, who chaired the panel, said the court agreed with the prosecution’s submission that High Court judge Datuk Abdul Halim Aman had misdirected in law and facts when amending the charge.
