The Ipoh Magistrate's Court this morning issued a warrant of arrest against Changkat Jering representative Mohd Osman Mohd Jailu for failing to turn up for his corruption trial.
His sister told the court that he was unwell but failed to produce a medical certificate on his behalf.
Behrang assemblyperson Jamaluddin Mohd Radzi also failed to turn up for the trial. He however produced a MC.
The two state representatives have left PKR to become Independents and have thrown their support behind Barisan Nasional in Perak.
As result BN has been able to take the control of the state, also with the support of a defector from DAP.
Jamaluddin and Mohd Osman face 16 charges, including allegedly soliciting or accepting bribes of between RM400 and RM100,000 during a two-week period between Aug 6 and 19 last year.
Both are expected to be at the swearing-in of state exco members at Istana Iskandariah in Kuala Kangsar at 10am today. Meanwhile the court postponed the hearing to Feb 15 and 16.
Strange. They seem to be sick at the right place and the right time. Coincidence? Maybe but then again, they can't make it to court but can make it to the palace? Maybe it's called 'selective sickness'.
