Najib santai saksi final Liga Juara-Juara




Diteman isteri, Rosmah teruja bersama ribuan penonton di Dataran Putrajaya

SAMBIL mengenakan jersi pasukan kegemarannya, Perdana Menteri, Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak dan isteri Datin Seri Rosmah Mansor hadir menyaksikan perlawanan akhir Liga Juara-Juara Eropah antara Manchester United dan Barcelona bersama peminat bola sepak menerusi skrin gergasi di Dataran Putrajaya, awal pagi semalam.

Lebih 10,000 peminat membanjiri dataran itu memberi tepukan gemuruh sebagai tanda penghormatan ketika menyambut ketibaan Najib, kira-kira setengah jam selepas perlawanan bermula, tiga minit sebelum Wayne Rooney menyamakan kedudukan 1-1.
Perdana Menteri tampak bersemangat sepanjang perlawanan tetapi Barcelona yang lebih mendominasi permainan akhirnya menumpaskan Man U dengan 3-1, sekali gus membuktikan statusnya sebagai kelab terulung sepanjang zaman.

Turut hadir menyaksikan perlawanan yang diadakan sempena program Himpunan Sejuta Belia 2011 itu ialah Menteri Belia dan Sukan, Datuk Seri Ahmad Shabery Cheek, Menteri di Jabatan Perdana Menteri, Tan Sri Dr Koh Tsu Koon, Timbalan Menteri Belia dan Sukan Datuk Razali Ibrahim dan Timbalan Menteri Wilayah Persekutuan dan Kesejahteraan Bandar, Datuk M Saravanan.

Ini adalah kali kedua Perdana Menteri menonton bola sepak bersama peminat. Disember lalu, Najib menyertai warga kota menonton perlawanan separuh akhir Piala AFF Suzuki di antara Malaysia dan Vietnam menerusi skrin gergasi di Jalan Bukit Bintang, Kuala Lumpur.

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...

As such, the Prime Minister said, it was important to scout for young talents in sports. "I observe that the Malaysia Games (Sukma) has become one of the important platforms to do so.

Rajagobal Let Off The Hook

PETALING JAYA, April 24 (Bernama) -- National head coach Datuk K. Rajagobal was let off the hook by the Football Association of Malaysia's (FAM) Disciplinary Committee after finding no evidence that he had violated FAM's Article 88, as claimed. FAM Disciplinary Committee chairman Datuk Taufik Abdul Razak said the committee had decided not to charge Rajagobal after carefully analysing the video of the post-match press conference by the 56-year-old coach. "After listening to the recording of the post-match press conference, we decided to drop the charge against Rajagopal as he did not make such a statement. "Maybe his (Rajagobal) assessment and comments of the match was misconstrued by the media. There was no mention of the FAM policy throughout his comments," said Taufik after emerging from a three-hour Disciplinary Committee meeting at Wisma FAM in Kelana Jaya, here, Wednesday. Rajagobal who does not mince his words when asked to com...
