Designer charged again with cheating

SHAH ALAM: A designer who went viral on the social sites for his design of a feminine robe, the “Jubah Pahlawan”, was charged in the Magistrate’s Court here again yesterday, also for cheating, and this time, involving RM50,000 and the victim, a hospital nurse, three years ago.

Ahmad Syubaili Aziz, 31, who also runs a nasi lemak business, however, pleaded not guilty to the charge before Magistrate Raja Noor Adilla Raja Mahyaldin.

He was charged with cheating the nurse, aged 28, by offering the business registration of MLM DCHL from RZ Corporation Sdn. Bhd, which prompted the woman to hand over her automatic teller machine (ATM) card, containing RM50,000, to him.

The offence was allegedly committed in front of the Sungai Buloh branch Bank Rakyat hear here on Feb 26, 2014.

The charge, under Section 420 of the Penal Code, provides an imprisonment for up to 10 years and with whipping, and fine, if found guilty.

Raja Noor Adilla allowed Ahmad Syubaili to be released on a bail of RM4,000 in one surety and set Nov 29 for mention.

Deputy public prosecutor Amira Haziqah Zulkifli prosecuted, while lawyer Ellen Cheran represented Ahmad Syubaili.

Last Oct 27, Ahmad Syubaili pleaded not guilty in the Kuala Lumpur Magistrate’s Court on two counts of cheating two nurses over a nasi lemak business deal involving RM84,000. - Bernama
