    KUALA LUMPUR: A chef and a financial consultant were jointly charged in the magistrates court with arranging to facilitate acquisition and control of property for Islamic State terrorists.
    Mohamad Fauzi Misrak, 35, who worked as a chef in Singapore, and Rohaimi Abd Rahim, 38, were said to have committed the offence at the Subang Jaya Maybank branch between December 2013 and July 2014.
    The charge under Section 130P of the Penal Code, read with Section 34 of the same Act, carries the death sentence or up to 30 years’ jail and a fine upon conviction.
    Both men nodded to indicate they understood the charge before magistrate Erry Shahriman Nor Aripin.
    No plea was recorded, pending a transfer of the case to the High Court.
    Earlier, DPP Mohd Farez Rahman told the court that both accused were also facing charges under Section 130G(c) of the Act.
    On Nov 11 last year, Rohaimi was charged with soliciting for property for IS militants through a blog Revolusi Islam.com.
    Mohamad Fauzi was charged with conspiring with Rohaimi by allegedly allowing his Maybank account to be used. — Bernama
