On the court record
The reported matters document appellate criminal-defence work in a multi-accused culpable-homicide prosecution, grounded in Court of Appeal judgments.
Nur Nabihah Nabil's reported matters are in criminal defence at the appellate level, arising from a homicide prosecution in which several accused were tried together and then appealed, argued through Messrs Revin Kumar & Bolkin before the Court of Appeal. The charges were of culpable homicide not amounting to murder under section 304(a) of the Penal Code, read together with section 34 of the same Act, which fixes each participant with liability for a criminal act done in furtherance of a common intention. Appearing for one of the appellants, she was part of the defence effort across the related appeals brought by the several accused persons.
Because the charge was laid under section 34, the appeals engaged the law of joint or constructive liability, where the prosecution must establish not only the criminal act but the shared intention that draws each accused into responsibility for it. The evidential record described the discovery of the deceased, the arrival of the investigating officer and forensics, and the post-mortem findings, so the appeals turned on how far that circumstantial and forensic evidence could sustain a conviction against each individual appellant, as distinct from the group as a whole.
The reported matters therefore illustrate a recurring feature of multi-accused homicide litigation: that each appellant is separately represented and the appellate court must consider the case against each, even where the charge arises from a single incident and a common-intention allegation binds them together. A thread across these decisions is the individual testing of guilt in a joint-liability prosecution, from the sufficiency of the forensic and identification evidence to the reach of section 34, argued before the Court of Appeal of Malaysia in appeals against conviction and sentence for culpable homicide. The reported work thus sits in serious criminal defence, where the outcome for any one appellant depends on separating the evidence against that person from the wider narrative of the incident and the co-accused.
