This is an old case which took place in 1999. interesting one.

The New Straits Times dated July 14, 1999 carried a front page report and the photograph of the accused with the caption:

"Grass cutter jailed 20 years for causing grievous hurt to school boy."

The Star too in its edition carried the report and the photograph of the accused with an eye catching caption, in its front page:

"Monster jailed."

the popular Malay daily, Utusan Malaysia, in its front page report:

"Bekas banduan sula murid di penjara 20 tahun."

(An ex-convict who impaled student jailed 20 years)

This was a case where the accused, a grass cutter and an ex-convict, who was just released from prison on February 16, 1999 after serving a 20 year jail sentence for raping a minor who subsequently died in 1985 and for that he was charged under section 304 of the Penal Code before the High Court in Muar on October 16, 1985, had the audacity to commit a heinous crime on June 1, 1999 by violently shoving a 60 cm stick up the anus of his victim, a young innocent schoolboy.

It took the doctors 5 1/2 hours to surgically remove the stick from the boy's anus.

The offence was committed on June 1, 1999 at about 5.00 p.m. to 6.00 p.m. along Jalan Tun Ibrahim, Bandar Tenggara, Kota Tinggi. the accused had stopped that schoolboy who was riding his bicycle alone on the pretext of asking for help. At that time, the accused was carrying a sack of durians and he had asked the schoolboy for assistance to transport the durian fruits on the bicycle ridden by the school boy to a nearby bush.. The school boy willingly obliged not knowing what was in store for him. On arrival at the designated place, the accused repeatedly punched the schoolboy until he fell unconscious. Having successfully overpowered the young school boy, the accused then used a 60 cm stick with its leaves and branches protruding and forcefully shoved it into the school boy's anus.

The boy's father had gone out to look for his son when his son did not return home by 6.30 p.m. anaged to trace his son who was at that time lying on the ground with his pants pulled down and the stick was seen protruding from his son's anus with blood oozing out profusely. The medical report showed that 5 cm of the stick was seen protruding out from the schoolboy's anus with minimal bleeding, which by then had dried. The other end of the stick went right up to the surface of the chest skin puncturing the school boy's urinal bladder and rupturing his small and large intestines with severe tears in the anus. Medically speaking there was an anterior anal tear about 1 cm with a perforated urinary bladder at both its anterior and posterior walls.

Judgment: he was sentenced of 20 years' imprisonment and be whipped with 20 strokes of the rattan

comment: e guy should be shoved with the e rattan 20 times instead of being whipped. try that u psiko.

apparently one of the reasons he did the crime is because he wanted to go back to the prison. he claimed the life in the prison is better than outside. so yeah he did that.

ps: this case is dedicated to my best friend - Su Nge Nge Kyaw. =)
