Newborn Died

A former college student broke into tears when she was immediately released by the Rayan Court today. Nur Izzati Adi, 26, had previously been sentenced to death for suffocating her newborn baby boy in a dormitory toilet bowl six years ago.

Nur Izzati’s Luck

A panel of three judges, led by Datuk Hadhariah Syed Ismail, made this decision after being informed that the Attorney General’s Chambers (AGC) had received a representation from the accused, who pleaded for a lesser charge of causing death instead of murder.

She later pleaded guilty, and the panel sentenced her to nine years in prison, starting from the date of her arrest on March 30, 2017. It means she walks free from jail.

Seorang bekas penuntut kolej lepas menangis apabila dibebaskan serta-merta oleh Mahkamah Rayan di hari ini. Nur Izzati Adi, 26 sebelum ini dihukum mati kerana melemaskan bayi lelaki yang baru dilahirkannya di dalam mangkuk tandas asrama enam tahun lalu.

Panel tiga hakim diketuai Datuk Hadhariah Syed Ismail membuat keputusan itu selepas dimaklumkan bahawa AGC telah menerima representasi Nur Izzati Adi, 26, yang memohon pertuduhan lebih ringan iaitu daripada membunuh kepada menyebabkan kematian.

Nur Izzati kemudian mengaku bersalah dan panel itu menjatuhkan hukuman penjara sembilan tahun terhadapnya yang bermula dari tarikh tangkap iaitu 30 Mac 2017.
