38 Pengikut Kiram Ditahan Perlu Sedia RM475,000 Untuk Bebas

Wednesday, 20 March 2013 14:21

BATU-BATU: Seramai 38 pengikut Kiram yang ditangkap pihak berkuasa Filipina  pada 13 Mac lalu perlu menyediakan wang jaminan P6.2 juta (RM475,000) jika mahu dibebaskan. Mereka ditahan kerana memiliki senjata api secara haram dan mencetuskan konflik sehingga menjadi pencetus konflik di Sabah. “Kami telah memfailkan usul untuk mengurangkan wang jaminan semalam tetapi ia masih belum selesai,” kata Ketua Pejabat Peguam (PAO), Persida Rueda-Acosta. Acosta hanya mengikut permintaan Kesultanan Sulu membela nasib pengikut Kiram seramai 38 orang itu. Beliau berkata, pihaknya cuba untuk meminta mahkamah mengurangkan wang ikat jamin kepada P3,000 (RM230) bagi setiap tertuduh. Pihaknya turut meminta mahkamah menjalankan siasatan awal supaya boleh mengemukan afidavit mereka. Setiausaha Kehakiman, Leila de Lima sebelum ini berkata Kiram dan pengikutnya boleh dibicara di Filipina di bawah Kanun Keseksaan yang diguna pakai jika rakyat negara itu melakukan kesalahan jenayah di luar negara. - Sinar Harian Lahad Datu: 28 Bodies Of Sulu Terrorists To Be Temporarily Buried LAHAD DATU: The bodies of 28 Sulu terrorists kept at the Lahad Datu and Tawau hospitals will be buried temporarily pending any claims by relatives. Deputy Inspector-General of Police Tan Sri Khalid Abu Bakar said yesterday that the temporary burial would be done as there was a lack of space at the mortuaries at the two hospitals as well as to prevent any health risk.
