The army warned that former personnel who used a MyTentera card or military uniform to portray themselves as serving members could be investigated and face legal action under the Penal Code.
PETALING JAYA : The army has denied claims by former staff sergeant K Vegeneswaran that it defied a Court of Appeal ruling that overturned his dismissal.
In a statement, the army said the appellate court in 2023 only set aside Vegeneswaran’s dismissal on procedural grounds.
The army subsequently ended Vegeneswaran’s service after he completed 18 years of full-time service, in accordance with Armed Forces regulations.
“The MyTentera card remains in his possession because he has yet to complete the documentation process relating to his discharge.”
