Hadiah kahwin Azizulhasni

 

Puas hati raih emas Beijing

KEJAYAAN jaguh berbasikal trek negara, Mohd Azizulhasni Awang meraih pingat emas dalam acara keirin di Piala Dunia Klasik di Beijing, China, adalah hadiah perkahwinan untuk bakal isterinya, Athiah Ilyana Abdul Samat yang akan dinikahinya, Sabtu ini.

Azizulhasni berkata sebelum ini Athiah Ilyana ada memintanya untuk memenangi emas sebagai hadiah perkahwinan.

"Saya cuma berjanji akan cuba sedaya upaya dan syukur akhirnya berjaya memenangi emas acara keirin selain meraih jersi putih," katanya sebaik tiba di Lapangan Terbang Antarabangsa Kuala Lumpur (KLIA), semalam.

Namun Azizulhasni berkata, kejayaan itu tidak akan melekakannya, sebaliknya kini memasang impian untuk memenangi Jersi Pelangi, sekali gus sebagai juara keirin di Kejohanan Trek Dunia di Denmark, Mac ini.

"Itu impian saya selepas terlepas tahun lalu. Sebagai pemenang jersi putih yang memungut mata terbanyak daripada empat siri Piala Dunia Klasik, saya harus berhati-hati kerana tumpuan pelumba lain akan terarah kepada saya nanti. 

Saya akan cuba memberikan yang terbaik kerana setiap kali turun berlumba, saya tidak mahu menghampakan rakyat Malaysia yang mengharapkan kejayaan saya," katanya.

Mengenai kejayaannya memenangi emas keirin di Beijing, Sabtu lalu, Azizulhasni berkata ia adalah kemenangan terbesarnya selepas kecewa dalam dua siri Piala Dunia Klasik yang disertainya di Manchester dan Melbourne.

Saya tidak suka kalah jadi di Beijing saya bertekad untuk menang walaupun terdapat beberapa halangan yang memang menguji kesabaran saya.

"Sebelum perlumbaan lagi berlaku kerosakan pada pedal basikal selain dihimpit oleh seorang pelumba Jepun semasa perlumbaan dan agak keletihan apabila memasuki peringkat akhir," katanya.

Ex-coach's jail sentence cut to a year

PUTRAJAYA: The Court of Appeal yesterday sentenced former athletics coach C. Ramanathan to 12 months' jail for molesting two junior athletes 19 years ago. A three-man bench led by Datuk Mohd Hishamudin Mohd Yunus unanimously dismissed Ramanathan's appeal against conviction, but varied the jail sentence of four years to a year, which was to run concurrently. Following yesterday's ruling, Ramanathan, 75, a former teacher, walked out a free man as he had served 10 months in Kajang Prison. Convicts get one-third remission for good behaviour while in prison. However, he will lose his pension. Hishamudin, who sat with Datuk Abdul Wahab Patail and Datuk Linton Albert, said the court found no merit to overturn the conviction. "However, in reducing the sentence, we considered Ramanathan's age and the long years the appeal has taken." Deputy public prosecutor Awang Armadajaya Awang Mahmud submitted that then High Court judge Tan Sri Abdull Hamid E...
