PETALING JAYA: Women's groups and political movements have expressed disappointment over a recent Syariah Court decision that the pronouncement of divorce via short messaging service (SMS) is legitimate.
In calling for a review of the Gombak Timur Syariah Court decision that the pronouncement of divorce sent by Shamsudin Latif via SMS to Azida Fazlina Abdul Latif was valid, Puteri Umno legal bureau chief Julita Ilhani Abdul Jabbar said it should not set a precedent for divorce via SMS.
