the bui bui shy 🫣 

KUALA LUMPUR: What began as a lovers' quarrel over sex turned tragic when a 22-year-old woman fatally stabbed her boyfriend in a hotel room after refusing his advances as she was menstruating. The High Court in Johor Baru sentenced the accused, dubbed Shy, to six years and six months in prison for causing the death of the 29-year-old deceased. According to court documents, the incident took place on Sept 20, 2022, after the couple, who had been in a relationship for almost a year, checked into a hotel near Jalan Austin Height. That night, a quarrel erupted when the man demanded sex. The accused, who was 19 at the time, refused, telling him she was on her menstrual period. Her refusal angered the man, who then threatened her with a knife. Fearful for her safety, she tried to wrest the weapon from him. In the struggle that followed, the knife plunged into the deceased's chest more than once. When she saw him lying motionless, Shy panicked. She immediately called her mother for help. Her mother and stepfather arrived moments later and, upon discovering the man's lifeless body, contacted the police. She was arrested that night and later charged with murder under Section 302 of the Penal Code, which carries the death penalty. However, after representations by her lawyer, Farhan Read, the prosecution led by deputy public prosecutor Juliana Jaffar agreed to reduce the charge to culpable homicide not amounting to murder under Section 304. The accused pleaded guilty to the reduced charge. In delivering his judgment, Judge Kan Weng Hin described the case as one of love, fear and irreversible tragedy. "The refusal to accept 'no' as an answer in a relationship can be deadly and devastating. "At the young age of 19, she had killed her boyfriend in a struggle over his demand for sex. "During the hearing after the accused had pleaded guilty, she was crying incessantly and could not even bear to look at the relevant photos of the deceased or the place of the incident shown to her. "She is obviously still traumatised by the incident. Forever she will carry the nightmare of that night with her," he said in his grounds of judgment dated yesterday. The judge said while the act could not go unpunished, the court must also consider her youth and the circumstances surrounding the offence. "In respect of young offenders, the court has shown a propensity to temper justice with mercy. "After all, what is to be gained by extracting 'a pound of flesh' (Merchant of Venice) when young offenders are subjected to long incarceration? "A long incarceration would not only make assimilation harder when the young offender is released but would compound the already overcrowded situation in prison," he said. Kan, in a postscript, ordered that the accused's identity be protected, noting that she deserved a chance to rebuild her life after completing her sentence. "In view of the age of the accused and the long-lasting impact of social media, the name of the accused has been abbreviated. "It is hoped that by doing so, the accused will have a chance to assimilate into society and live a normal life after she has served her sentence. It is important that her offspring, if any, will not be stigmatised. "After all, once she has paid the price by serving her sentence, she should be allowed to fade back into society and not be subjected to public scrutiny," he added. Both the prosecution and the defence have filed appeals against the decision.
