Hudud goes against Federal Constitution, say panellists at forum


KUALA LUMPUR: There are numerous factors to consider before hudud law can be implemented in the country, chiefly that Malaysia is not an Islamic state, said lawyer Syahredzan Johan.

“There are so many factors about hudud that go against the constitution and considering the fact that Malaysia is actually not an Islamic state, the constitution is the highest law,” said the lawyer, who was one of the panellists at a public forum on Hudud at the Kuala Lumpur Selangor Chinese Assembly Hall, Friday.
