She said both the prosecution and defence had filed their written submissions. The prosecution had filed a total of 366 pages of written submission.
"The defence team, comprising eight lawyers, has also filed their submissions," she told reporters at the High Court, here, on Wednesday.
On May 14, High Court Judge Datuk Duncan Sikodol set June 11 to decide on the Mohamad Nazmie Aizzat murder case. However, a notice issued by the High Court on Tuesday (June 10) informed parties of the rescheduling. – Bernama
