Former Umno supreme council member Lokman Noor Adam has claimed trial for two charges of making offensive communications against Prime Minister Ismail Sabri Yaakob and the government.<br /><br />Lokman, who pleaded not guilty, has been accused of making the offending remarks on Facebook with the intent of annoying others.<br /><br />However, Lokman's lawyer asked for RM2,000 bail for each charge on the grounds that the former Umno supreme council member - who now works as a satay seller - did not have a stable income with 11 children of schooling age to look after.<br /><br />Judge Nor Hasniah Abd Razak set bail at RM8,000 for each charge and issued a gag order against Lokman from commenting on the case on social media.
