PETALING JAYA: Politicians, women’s groups and non-governmental organisations have hit out at Kelantan Mentri Besar Datuk Nik Abdul Aziz Nik Mat over his remarks that the media was to blame for the surge in the crime rate.
Prime Minister Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi said society should be the one to decide whether the media had played their role well, adding that there was no need for any party to blame the media for writing and publishing the truth.
