Public caning in stadiums likely


KOTA BARU: The Kelantan government is looking into gazetting suitable venues including mosque compounds and stadiums to carry out public caning in the state.

Mentri Besar Datuk Ahmad Yakob said an amendment to the Kelantan Syariah Criminal Proce­dure Enactment 2002 to allow public caning was passed last year. However, this has yet to be gazetted.
