Judge orders retrial for jobless man who pled guilty to displaying Agong’s photo in KKB polls, says he didn’t understand charge

Judicial Commissioner Wendy Ooi Su Ghee decided the matter after allowing a review application by P. Ramasamy, 66, against his guilty plea when charged with the offence at the Kuala Kubu Baharu Magistrate’s Court. “The applicant pleaded guilty without qualifications. This can be seen from his mitigation where he repeatedly addressed the court ’I don’t know’, I have no intention, I have a clean heart“By raising such mitigation, shows the applicant did not appreciate the essential ingredient of the offence charged...It is the court’s findings that the applicant did not understand the nature and the consequences of the charge to which he pleaded guilty.

At today’s proceedings, Deputy Public Prosecutor Ainul Mardhiyah Mohd Ali appeared for the prosecution, while Ramasamy, who was not in court, was represented by lawyers L. Pavitra and Harsimranpreet Kaur.Last May 6, Ramasamy pleaded guilty to the charge and was sentenced to one month in jail and fined RM3,000, in default 10 months imprisonment, for the offence.
