The main witness in the trial of Major Zaidi Ahmad today in Kuala Lumpur said that the latter was not guilty of committing an offence according to military law.
Zaidi is on trial in Military Court for reporting to the press about indelible ink used in the 13th general election last May.
Lt-Colonel Mohammad Rosli Yaacob who is acting as the head of the board of inquiry in the case, said so when asked by defense counsel Hanipa Maidin.
Rosli agreed that elections matters were not related to military matters as referred to in the Order of the Armed Forces No 13 (1961) Discipline and Security – Communication of Information and Publication of Articles by Members of the Armed Forces.
This was contained in the charge against Zaidi who was accused of giving media statements without the permission of his superiors.
