Lampiran A

Facebook post by "Muhammad Zaki Omar" on 4 April 2021 at 8:44pm.

Bersatu Dalam Menyebar Fitnah

Puak-puak geng lokter maybe buat-buat lupa bagaimana mereka bersatu menyebarkan persepsi dan fitnah terhadap fitnah terhadap Doula Feb 2018.

Sanggup kumpul duit untuk support geng mereka yang kena saman fitnah oleh kami.

Lepas 2 tahun 8 bulan, terbukti 2 orang lokter menfitnah Doula. Sekor pun takde nak minta maaf.

Puak-puak diorg ni siap kumpul duit untuk bayar jumlah saman yang diarahkan oleh Mahkamah. Walaupun bukti jelas geng mereka menfitnah.

Ketua diorg dengan jawatan yang ada, buat bodo saja tanpa nak betulkan persepsi jahat yang puak mereka sebarkan.

Sebab tu kalau nak tengok kat mana fitnah akhir zaman bercambah, tengoklah pada puak2 ni.

Dengan vaksin yang mereka promote siang malam, yang sihat pun boleh jatuh sakit. Itupun tak dapat nak halang virus daripada bertapak dalam hidung mereka yang dah cucuk 2 dos.

Korang rasa hidup korang bertambah baik dengan bergantung pada sijil tauliah diorg?

Dah setahun lawan kobid.. Dah menang?

Atau seorang demi seorang tumbang?

Teruskan suntik.. Teruskan.. Saya sesekali takkan halang pun. Nak buat apa halang?

Sendiri nak cucuk, sendiri tanggung. Aku nak tolong minta pampasan pun, aku jugak yang kena hentam balik.

Sebab itu kalau nak tengok geng lokter paling fanatic di dunia, carilah di Malaysia. Takde logik yang boleh explain bentuk pemikiran mereka ni.

Entah apa diorang makan aku pun tak tau.. Maybe asbab apa yang diorg cucuk kut.. Entah ler..

[4] On 6 June 2024, after putting the prosecution's evidence through a maximum evaluation at the end of the prosecution's case, I ruled that the prosecution had failed to establish a prima facie case on the preferred charge against the accused. Accordingly, the accused was acquitted and discharged. I now provide the grounds for my decision.

Prosecution's Case

[5] On 5 April 2021 at 2:43pm, the complainant (SP2) lodged a police report concerning a Facebook post made by a user with the profile of Muhammad Zaki Omar. The Facebook post contained statements, among others, on the implementation of vaccination and included an attachment of a cut-out from the Malaysiakini news article entitled "Kementerian sahkan kematian bayi akibat sesak nafas," together with a picture of a man in a suit, with his eyes redacted, who is believed to be the Director General of Health at the material time.

[6] The prosecution called 8 witnesses to establish its case, namely:

a) Mohd Zamiri bin Sanin ("SP1")

b) Ropidah binti Mohammad ("SP2")

c) Azrinizam bin Ibrahim ("SP3")

d) Abdul A'zim bin Dahrin ("SP4")

e) Mohd Azmil bin Mohamed Nazim ("SP5")

f) Inspektor Muhamad Shamin bin Abdul Qasim ("SP6")
