Treason if Hadi's Bill is tabled, says ex-DPM's son


KUALA LUMPUR: The Parliament Speaker will be committing treason if he proceeds to allow the tabling of the Bill to amend the Syariah Courts (Criminal Jurisdiction) Act, says pro-moderation activist Mohamed Tawfik Ismail (pic).

The motion, which was moved to first place in the Parliament Order Paper on Thursday, has become the subject matter of a lawsuit between Tawfik and Speaker Tan Sri Pandikar Amin Mulia and House secretary Datuk Roosme Hamzah.
