KUALA LUMPUR: Businesswoman and former 'Nona' host Norjuma Habib Mohamed pleaded not guilty to charges of voluntarily causing hurt to three individuals and committing mischief by damaging property at a condominium.
Norjuma, 44, claimed trial to all the offences when the charges were read to her before four separate magistrates — Noor Elynna Hanim Abdul Halim, Amira Abd Aziz, Illi Marisqa Khalizan and Fatin Dayana Jalil today.
According to the charges, she is accused of voluntarily causing hurt to Nepali security guard Neupane Tika Ram by kicking his leg at a tuition centre in Bukit Damansara at 3pm on March 29, 2018.

Norjuma was also charged with slapping and scratching the hands of Nur Solehah Rosli at a condominium near Wangsa Maju at 10.30am on Oct 18, 2021.
The offence falls under Section 302 of the Penal Code, which carries a maximum one-year jail term or fine of not more than RM2,000, or both, upon conviction.
Norjuma was also charged under Section 427 of the Penal Code for damaging a boom gate and a closed-circuit television camera of a condominium near Taman U-Thant in Ampang Hilir on July 28 last year.
She is liable to a maximum two years' imprisonment or fine, or both, upon conviction.
Deputy public prosecutors R.G. Harvind, Hamizah Hisan and Vivian Yeap prosecuted, while Norjuma was represented by lawyer Izzat Amir.
The court set RM6,500 bail with one surety for all offences and fixed June 27 for mention.
