Apex court upholds death sentence on man who murdered stepson

JOHOR BARU: The Federal Court has upheld the death sentence on a former land broker who murdered his six-year-old stepson 13 years ago.

A three-member panel led by Chief Justice Tun Tengku Maimun Tuan Mat unanimously decided this here on Tuesday (July 16) after rejecting the application by Azman Abd Rahman, 49, for a review to commute his death sentence.
