I call on a IGP to insist why as well as how it is Ong Sing Yee, 19 as well as others were arrested as well as detained for investigations underneath a Sedition Act 1948.
Stepping on a photograph of a Prime Minister as well as his mother cannot be an corruption underneath a Sedition Act 1948.
Section 4 of a Act makes it an corruption for any person who does or attempts to do any act which has or would have a seditious tendency.
Section 3 of a Act defines as well as outlines what is meant by a difference "seditious tendency". Of a 6 instances, (a) defines it as being a bent to bring into loathing or contempt or to stir up disaffection opposite any Ruler or opposite any Government.
And as for a clarification of "Government", section 2 of a Act says it means Government of Malaysia as well as of any State in Malaysia.
Does not request to Najib & Rosmah
Clearly therefore a Act does not request to a Prime Minister as well as his mother individually. It contingency be taken in its correct context. The acts complained of contingency relate to a Government in terms of its governance as well as not otherwise.
To magnify a duplicate of a word Government to individuals who have been part of a Government would be to stretch its clarification too far.
It is serve unsatisfactory to note which notwithstanding a supervision observant openly which it proposes to repeal a Sedition Act 1948 since it is outdated, a Act is still being used.
S! edition Act due to be repealed as announced by Najib himself
In Jul this really year, a Prime Minister himself announced a proposed repeal of a Act.
Dato Seri Nazri Aziz was thereafter quoted in a Star of Jul fourteen 2012 as saying:
"The Sedition Act has a provision of not permitting a raising of annoy opposite a government, but right away we have discarded it as critique leveled at a supervision as well as its leaders is legitimate underneath a freedom of speech guaranteed underneath a Constitution."
"The Sedition Act has a provision of not permitting a raising of annoy opposite a government, but right away we have discarded it as critique leveled at a supervision as well as its leaders is legitimate underneath a freedom of speech guaranteed underneath a Constitution."
The movement of a police in moving to do what to my mind isn't condoned by a Act as well as opposite a Jul declaration aforesaid is therefore, as well as but explanation, an abuse of process.
As such, it would be most appropriate for a police to transparent a air as well as insist forthwith.
