Deputy public prosecutor Asmaa Zamri informed the magistrates’ court here today the Attorney-General’s Chambers (AGC) had rejected fresh representations made on behalf of Patrick Khoo, 70, for the case to be withdrawn.

The representations were lodged on Dec 21 last year.

Magistrate Shahril Anuar Ahmad Mustapa set case management for March 22 pending the exchange of documents and preparation of witness statements.

Khoo was represented by lawyers Rajsurian Pillai and Tay Chee Fu.

“This is the eighth case management and the prosecution has yet to deliver the documents of the case under Section 51A of the Criminal Procedure Code, including a forensic report,” Tay told FMT.

On Nov 17 last year, the AGC rejected Khoo’s initial representations despite the complainant having withdrawn his report.

Khoo is accused of obstructing Azizul Azzim Norehan, an MBPJ officer, from performing his duties during a round-up of stray dogs.

The incident was reported to have occurred at Taman Kanagapuram, Petaling Jaya, on March 22 and allegedly captured on video which went viral.
