PETALING JAYA: A Yemeni man, who dressed up as a suicide bomber for a Halloween celebration, was fined RM400, in default four days imprisonment, by the magistrate's court here for causing public nuisance. The 34-year-old man was charged with (creating a) public nuisance by donning a suicide bomber outfit in public at Armanee Terrace Condominium about 7.40pm on Oct 28. Counsel Puan Sri N. Saraswathy Devi, who represented the accused, pleaded for a leniency, stating that his client was remorseful to the crime. "This is a very serious crime as it can cause confusion among the public, in differentiating between the real suicide bomber and the fake. This had led the police to trigger a man-hunt for the accused prompting him to surrender himself last week.
