00:10Berhad, Nasiruddin Muhammad Ali, the son of the former founder of Al-Arqam and 11 of the
00:17company's top leaders, will be released after Friday prayers. Lawyer Datuk Rosli Kamaruddin,
00:23who represented all the accused, stated that although the high court sentenced them to 15
00:28months in prison, the offset by the public holiday and weekend period means they can
00:33be released immediately starting Friday, reported Sinar Harian. He said his clients would not be
00:39taken to Sungai Bulo prison as all administrative matters would be resolved at the Kajang prison
00:45court complex. On Friday, Nasiruddin and 12 male defendants were sentenced to 15 months in prison
00:52after admitting to being members of an illegal group five years ago. Meanwhile, Nasiruddin's
00:58wife, Azura Mat Yusof, and eight other women were each fined RM4,500 in default of seven-month
01:05jail after pleading guilty to the same charge under Section 43 of the Society's Act 1966.
