Justice Aslam Zainuddin made the order today pending his determination on the correctness, legality, and propriety of the magistrate’s sentencing decision.

The revision is being conducted under Section 323 of the Criminal Procedure Code.

Counsel Ariffin Abdul Wahab said he would notify the men to appear in court on April 21.

Deputy public prosecutor Faridah Nurdhinie Bahrum appeared for the prosecution.

On Friday, the magistrates’ court fined 32 people RM3,000 each after they pleaded guilty to the charge.

The court also fined two 19-year-old teenagers RM2,000 each for the same offence.

The 34, aged between 19 and 57, were charged with being in possession of various weapons, including firearms, ammunition, explosive and flammable substances, and sticks and stones, which could be used to carry out attacks, at an entertainment outlet in Cheras on April 5.

The charge was framed under Section 148 of the Penal Code, which provides for a penalty of up to five years’ imprisonment, a fine, or both, upon conviction.

The motive for the offence was not established in court. However, media reports said the incident could have stemmed from a dispute between the owner and his competitors.
