Shahidan wanted by police for skipping court

KANGAR: A warrant of arrest has been issued against Arau MP Datuk Seri Shahidan Kassim for failing to be present in court to face charges, believed to be related to the case where an underaged girl was allegedly molested by him recently.

But by noon, his lawyer Zuhair Ahmad Zakuan said that Shahidan was required to appear at the Sessions court here on Monday after a failed attempt to have the warrant of arrest revoked.
