KOTA KINABALU: Nine Filipino nationals were spared the noose after the High Court here ordered them to be jailed for life following their conviction for waging war against the Yang di-Pertuan Agong.
The nine included Datu Amirbahar Hushin Kiram, nephew of the late self-styled Sultan Jamalul Kiram III, who ordered the intrusion at Kampung Tanduo in Lahad Datu in February 2013.
