MELAKA: A 27-year-old man who escaped the hangman's noose on Monday (Sept 25) vows to stay on the straight and narrow for the rest of his life.

A. Uvaraj, from Bukit Baru, and a 37-year-old friend were acquitted and discharged on three charges of drug trafficking by the High Court in Ayer Keroh.

Uvaraj, an odd-job worker before his arrest, said the prison had taught him harsh life lessons, and he was remorseful for embarrassing his family."I am also grateful to my two brothers for their constant support while I was in jail," he said. Uvaraj and his friend faced three charges each for trafficking 198g of methamphetamine, 39g of heroin, and 540g of cannabis, all framed under Section 39B of the Dangerous Drugs Act 1952, which carried the mandatory death penalty upon conviction.

Based on facts submitted to the court, the drugs were found inside an apartment on Jalan Bukit Baru at about 10pm on April 26, 2019.
