KUALA LUMPUR: The Magistrate's Court has acquitted Datuk SM Faisal SM Nasimuddin of the charge of injuring his ex-wife Emilia Hanafi eight years ago, after the woman withdrew the case against the businessman.
Magistrate Nadia Othman made the decision on Friday after allowing the request by SM Faisal's lawyer Datuk Akberdin Abdul Kader, as Emilia, the complainant and also the final prosecution witness, agreed to withdraw the case.
Deputy Public Prosecutor Nur Aishah Ahmad Zakiuddin then called Emilia to the witness stand to confirm the matter."Due to there being a settlement, I would like to withdraw this case. I also understand the consequence that if I withdraw the case, the charges cannot be continued against the accused," said Emilia when questioned by Nur Aishah at Friday's proceedings, originally scheduled for the continuation of the trial.
"The case was successfully resolved and the basis of the resolution was the blessed month of Ramadan and the welfare of the children . There are terms of the agreement but there is no need to disclose them, we celebrate the agreement that has been reached," he said.
