Umiezatul Asyikin Nasrun admitted to two charges, namely abetting her boyfriend in injuring a police officer and damaging the latter’s motorcycle, in the incident last month.

She had earlier pleaded not guilty but changed her plea during mention of the case before Judge Effandi Nazila Abdullah who was sitting as magistrate today.

On the first count, Umiezatul Asyikin was charged with abetting Muhammad Asraf Zulkefli, 19, in causing injury to Mohamad Amirul Yahya, a civil servant on duty, at the parking lot of a fast-food restaurant in Section 9, Bandar Baru Bangi at 10.30pm on March 9.

The charge was filed under Section 332 of the Penal Code which carries a maximum jail term of three years, or with a fine, or both.

Video footage of the incident had previously gone viral on social media, which showed the policeman clinging on to the bonnet of the car after the driver of the car rammed into Amirul’s motorcycle in an attempt to flee inspection.

Umiezatul Asyikin was also accused of abetting Asraf in committing mischief by deliberately damaging the handlebar, exhaust, sport rims and the rear registration number plate of Amirul’s motorcycle, causing losses totalling RM1,060 at the same place and time.

The charge filed under Section 427 of the Penal Code, provides for imprisonment of not less than one year and a maximum of five years, or with a fine, or both.

On March 12, Umiezatul Asyikin had pleaded not guilty to the two abetment charges while Asraf pleaded guilty to two charges of injuring the policeman and damaging his motorcycle.

Prosecuting officer Mohd Mazuri Mohd Nazir applied for a date for mention while waiting for the report on injuries sustained to Amirul, as well as the probation report of the two teenagers from the Social Welfare Department, as they were both under the age of 21.

The court then set May 28 for sentencing. The couple was represented by lawyer Mohd Fikah Sanusi.
