Deputy Public Prosecutor Nidzuwan Abd Latif did not offer bail, citing the serious nature of the offence and the fact that the offence is non-bailable under the law.

“After stabbing the victim, the accused fled the scene while still carrying the weapon (knife). If the court grants bail, there is a risk that the accused may abscond. The victim also sustained severe injuries, including the protrusion of his intestines,” said the prosecutor.

Yap was unrepresented.

Judge Siti Shakirah Mohtarudin did not grant bail and set Sept 2 for mention. – BERNAMA
