JOHOR BARU: Bersatu information committee member Badrul Hisham Shaharin, better known as Chegubard, arrived at the court complex here at 8.50am as he prepares to face at least one more charge.
Dressed in a white shirt and black slacks, he appeared calm as he walked into the complex accompanied by his lawyer, Muhammad Rafique Rashid Ali.
Badrul Hisham is expected to face at least one more sedition charge at the Sessions Court here later, this time over a social media posting regarding a purported casino project in Forest City based on a Bloomberg report which has since been denied.
In Kuala Lumpur yesterday, the 45-year-old was charged with two counts under the Sedition Act for making seditious remarks and defaming the Yang di-Pertuan Agong.
Badrul Hisham claimed trial to both charges as soon as they were read before Sessions judge Siti Aminah Ghazali.
