The prosecution in the trial of six police officers and a civilian who are charged with killing an e-hailing driver will adduce to show that the murder took place on Jan 13 last year (2023), where the deceased was lured out of a hotel in Tawau and ordered to drive with others in a car to an oil palm plantation where he was killed.

The trial of the six officers and a civilian who are charged with killing the e-hailing driver early last year, along with former Eastern Sabah Security Command (Esscom) head of intelligence staff Mat Zaki Md Zain who is accused of abetting, started in the Tawau High Court yesterday.
