Do you notice something amiss in the title of this Bernama report carried by The Sun of 13th February 2019?
I.E. - An alleged cable thief is electrocuted and lives to be arrested, charged in court, tried in court and sentenced if found guilty.
According to the Cambridge Dictionary, "electrocuted" means:-
"to kill someone by causing electricity to flow through their body"
In American English it means.
"to send electricity through someone's body, causing death"
Whilst the story is sourced from Bernama, however, the onus also rests on the editor or sub-editor at The Sun to ensure that the meaning of words, grammar and spelling are correct.
