KOTA KINABALU: Malaysia will not be able to extradite wanted Sabahan Doris Jones (pic), a London-based activist operating the Sabah Sarawak Keluar Malaysia (SSKM) Facebook page as Britain laws do not recognise her ‘crime’ under Sedition Act.

Insp. Mohd Shahrizan Yahaya said they can only arrest Jones, who is identified as Yapp Kim Youn by Malaysian police if she returns to the country.
