A forensic inspector told the Sessions Court that Aminulrasyid Amzah did not reverse the car as alleged by some policemen who were at the crime scene that fateful early morning on April 26, 2010.

NONE Corporal Jenain Subi, 48, ( left ) is charged under Section 304(a) of the Penal Code with culpable homicide not amounting to the murder of Aminulrasyid, at Jalan Tarian 11/2, Section 11, Shah Alam, between 1.10am and 2am on that day.

Inspector Mazli Jusoh, the 25th prosecution witness to the case, said he was briefed by the investigating officer, Assistant Superintendent Ahmad Fauzi Mohamed Zin, that the teenager had reversed the car resulting in the fatal shot.

"Hence, on that night, my investigation centred on what was inside the car and on the victim only," he said in reply to questions from DPP Mohd Dusuki Mokhtar.

The then inspector-general of police Musa Hassan had in a press conference claimed that Aminulrasyid tried to reverse the car which endangered his men.

However Aminulrasyid's family members denied that the lad had tried to reverse the vehicle and alleged a possible cover-up by the police.

Inspector Mazli told the court that two days after the incident he was asked by another investigating officer, Assistant Superintendent Abdul Halim Ismail, who was also at the crime scene, that the police needed forensic help to re-examine the crime scene again, and also the car.

At that time, the witness said he did not know that Abdul Halim would be the new investigating officer, replacing Ahmad Fauzi, but Halim had informed him so after they met.

"Abdul Halim wanted to verify allegations on whether it was true the car had reversed. My men and I went to see the car, which had been placed at the Shah Alam district police headquarters. We also met up with ASP Halim there."

"We arrived there on April 28 at about 10.40am to inspect the car to check on the tyre threads. About an hour later, I went to the crime scene at Jalan 11/2 to check on the tyre track marks.

"Following inspections, Mazli said he found the tyre crowns to be all right and there were no tyre tracks at the scene to suggest the car had reversed.

Bullet trail

Following this discovery, he said he was instructed to trace the car chase and the trail of bullets on that same day.

He said that he was also briefed that two policemen had fired their weapons in the car chase.

azlan Mazli related that his team had difficulty in tracing the bullet cartridges and 9mm slugs as the incident happened on a busy road.

"So my team walked by foot to trace the bullet cartridges and slugs. We found 15 cartridges and two slugs from the Kayangan roundabout and along Persiaran Kayangan and into Jalan 11/2.

"The last cartridge was found on the driveway of a house near where the victim's car had struck the brick wall at the perimeter of the house," he said.

He explained that when he found the cartridges or slugs he would instruct his men to immediately take pictures of them and label them.

Normally, he said they would gather all the cartridges and slugs and then take pictures but he had decided to do it differently to show the trail of bullets.

The witness then opened the cartridges and slugs which he identified and it was then marked as evidence.

Hearing continues on Nov 22 and 23 with Mazli's continued testimony.
