Israeli Avitan Shalom's firearms trial postponed again due to Hebrew interpreter request


KUALA LUMPUR: The trial of Israeli national Avitan Shalom, facing charges of possessing 200 rounds of ammunition and trafficking six firearms, was postponed once again to Monday (Jan 13) due to his request for a Hebrew interpreter.

Judge Norina Zainol Abidin set the new date after Avitan's lawyer, Datuk Naran Singh, informed the court that his client required a Hebrew interpreter throughout the trial.
