KUALA LUMPUR: An advertising company managing director claimed trial at the Sessions Court here yesterday to 12 charges of forging and using falsified documents pertaining to the Ramadan bazaar at Jalan Tuanku Abdul Rahman (TAR), seven years ago.

Kamarullizam Misran, 37, faces the first charge of forging an application letter dated Sept 6, 2005 for a space at the Ramadan bazaar site in Jalan TAR here and falsifying an application form for a Kuala Lumpur City Hall (DBKL) temporary hawker’s licence.

He had allegedly signed on the documents, which were under the name of Rita Juliana Mohd Ali, 32, and used them to induce a petty trader, Ahmad Adris, 48, to hand RM11,000 to him.

Kamarullizam allegedly committed the offence at DBKL’s Petty Traders Development and Management office between Sept 6, 2005 and Oct 11, 2005.

For the 11 other charges, he stands accused of fraudulently using as authentic, a forged application letter to operate at Jalan TAR and Jalan Masjid India, in conjunction with Ramadan, and a falsified application form for a temporary hawker’s licence under the names of 11 petty traders.

He allegedly committed the offences at the same place between Sept 9 and Oct 11, 2005.

Judge Rozilah Salleh allowed him bail of RM12,000 in one surety and fixed Oct 19 for mention.
