Peter Anthony to begin prison term after losing final appeal


PUTRAJAYA: Former Sabah minister Datuk Peter Anthony will serve his three-year jail sentence for falsifying documents from today after losing his final appeal.

A three-judge Court of Appeal panel chaired by Justice Ahmad Zaidi Ibrahim upheld Peter's conviction and sentence after finding that there were no errors from the Sessions Court that would justify intervention by the appellate court.
