Nazri was replying to PSM secretary-general S. Arutchelvan who questioned a make use of of a Emergency Ordinance (EO) to catch its members when a country is not in a state of puncture instead of alternative laws, such as a Penal Code, which provides for similarly unbending punishment.

If there is no puncture in a country, because is a Emergency Ordinance used to catch these people? Arutchelvan lifted in a news conference four days ago.

We dont endure this because... how to explain to soldiers as well as soldiers family groups they died for nothing? Nazri said.

He stressed which a emanate with a PSM apprehension was wholly a security emanate as well as which a military were entitled to make use of whatever law necessary to safeguard a nations safety.

Its up to a military to take movement underneath a existing laws. Its not wrong for them to take movement underneath a EO as well as its not wrong for them to take movement underneath existing laws.
