A teenager was charged in the Ampang Sessions Court today with committing sexual physical assault to a girl at a mosque in Batang Kali, Hulu Selangor.

Adam Haiqal Abdullah, 19, pleaded guilty to the charge before judge Norshila Kamaruddin.

The court set March 27 for the sentencing following the prosecution’s request to obtain a social report on the accused from the Department of Social Welfare.

Adam was charged with committing the offence on the girl, aged 10 years and eight months, at a mosque in Batang Kali at 6.20am last Feb 21.

Deputy public prosecutor Nurfadzlin Mahmad Zulhasnan appeared for the prosecution, while the accused was unrepresented.
