KUALA LUMPUR: May 6, 2008
Raja Petra Kamaruddin, the editor of news portal Malaysia Today, arrived at the magistrates’ court in the Kuala Lumpur Court Complex in Jalan Duta at 9.06am Tuesday.
He was later instructed to go to the PJ sessions court to be charged.
A crowd of about a hundred people were gathered at the Jalan Duta court. Among them were bloggers and Opposition MPs including Salahuddin Ayub (Kubang Kerian), Datuk Kamarul Baharin Abbas (Teluk Kemang) and Nurul Izzah Anwar (Lembah Pantai).
Raja Petra is to be charged Tuesday with sedition for an article he wrote titled “Let’s send the Altantuya murderers to hell.”
The article was posted on his website on April 25 and implicated Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak and his wife Datin Seri Rosmah Mansor.
