One police officer has been charged over the fatal shooting of 14-year old Aminulrasyid Amzah last month.Corporal Jenain Subi, 48, was charged at the Shah Alam Sessions Court about 12pm, and has claimed trial to the charge under Section 304A of the Penal Code of causing death by negligence.Deputy public prosecutor Abdul Majid Hamzah confirmed this today when contacted.
If found guilty, Jenain can be punished with up to 20 years' imprisonment, said Abdul Majid.
Aminulrasyid had gone out with a friend, Azamuddin Omar, 15, on the evening of April 25 to a nearby food stall to watch football.
The former was killed, however, after coming under a hail of gunfire from the police - who alleged to have found the two youths in "suspicious circumstances."
The police alleged Aminulrasyid had tried to ram into them, thus forcing them to open fire.
Azamuddin, however, has denied this and said Aminulrasyid was shot while driving until the car he was driving crashed in a residential area in Section 11, Shah Alam.
