Kejayaan Nur Suryani bakar semangat rakan-rakan


NUR SURYANI (tengah) berjaya meraih pingat perak pada Kejohanan Piala Dunia di Australia, Selasa lalu.


KEJAYAAN penembak wanita negara, Nur Suryani Mohd. Taibi meraih pingat perak pada Kejohanan Piala Dunia di Sydney, Australia Selasa lepas sudah pasti akan membakar semangat penembak lain untuk turut mencipta kejayaan pada temasya Sukan Komanwel 2010 di New Delhi, Oktober depan.

Setiausaha Eksekutif Persatuan Menembak Kebangsaan Malaysia, Mejar Jasni Shaari berkata, berdasarkan prestasi semasa, penembak negara seperti Hasli Izwan Amir Hassan dan Nur Suryani, ia memberi petunjuk bahawa skuad negara berkemampuan untuk memperoleh pingat sekurang-kurangnya satu emas di New Delhi nanti.


"Cabaran di New Delhi adalah lebih mudah berbanding di Australia kerana di sana (India) tidak ramai penembak handalan bertaraf Olimpik yang mengambil bahagian.

"Saya yakin penembak kita tidak mempunyai masalah untuk meraih pingat di sana nanti," katanya semalam.
Jasni berkata, setakat ini, hanya tiga penembak sudah melayakkan diri untuk beraksi di New Delhi iaitu Hasli Izwan yang akan menyertai tiga acara pistol iaitu 25 meter rapid fire, 25m centre fire dan 50m free pistol.
Manakala Nur Suryani dan Shahera Rahim Raja akan beraksi dalam acara 50m raifal prone, 50m raifal tiga posisi dan 10m raifal angin.

"Senarai akhir atlet yang terpilih hanya dapat diketahui pada awal Mei nanti setelah mendapat persetujuan daripada pihak Majlis Olimpik Malaysia," katanya.

Sebanyak 17 acara sukan akan dipertandingkan pada temasya Sukan Komanwel 2010, antaranya menembak, angkat berat, akuatik, badminton, berbasikal, bola jaring, boling padang, gimnastik, olahraga, hoki, ping pong dan tinju.

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...
