SHAH ALAM:
A 41-year-old housewife pleaded not guilty at the magistrates’ court here today to three charges involving the possession of 205 Malaysian passports, identity cards belonging to three men, and one fake MyKad last month.

N Paarvathy entered the plea after the charges were read out before magistrate Syafiq Sulaiman.

According to the first charge, she was accused of being in possession of 205 passports.

For the second and third charges, she was accused of possessing a fake MyKad under the name of a 24-year-old man, as well as three MyKads belonging to men aged 19, 21 and 31, without a reasonable excuse.

The offences were allegedly committed at a condominium unit in Taman Puchong Hartamas, Puchong, at 12.10am on July 11.

Deputy public prosecutor Norhidayah Abdullah Sani proposed that bail be set at RM30,000 for all charges, with an additional condition that the accused report to the nearest police station once a month.

However, the accused’s counsel, Yogamani M Marappan, appealed for a lower bail amount, stating that his client was unemployed and financially dependent on her husband.

The magistrate allowed bail of RM15,000 for all charges with one surety and fixed case mention for Sept 22.
