A total of 2058 signatures were collected during a signature campaign in Farlim, Penang to petition against the discharge and acquittal of a suspect involved in the rape and gruesome murder of the Chee Gaik Yap. Chee was abducted while jogging around her neighbourhood in Sungai Petani seven years ago. Shahril Jaafar, 32 walked free after the high court ruled, last Thursday, that the prosecution failed to prove a prima facie case. Shahril, a car salesman and the son of a VIP, had absconded to Perth in 2006 but was apprehended when he landed at the Sepang Airport in January 2012.
The signature drive at Farlim where the pictures were taken, is part of a nationwide effort to collect 50 thousand signatures addressed to the Kedah High Court, latest by tomorrow.

It is actually questionable that since they determined that there is more than one person involved, why is there is no mention of the other perpetrators at all? Who are they?
This case can be considered one of the high profile cases in recent years. Unfortunately, the general public perception and success rate in most of these cases are usually not very positive.The quest for justice continues...
