SEPANG: A senior citizen was charged in the Sessions Court here with posting offensive remarks against His Majesty Sultan Ibrahim, King of Malaysia, on Facebook in February.
However, the charges were not read out to the 61-year-old man due to his health and hearing issues.
Judge Ahmad Fuad Othman granted the accused permission to undergo psychiatric assessment, with the case fixed for mention on Aug 15.
A warrant of arrest was issued by the court on June 20 after the man failed to appear in court twice, Bernama reported.
