PETALING JAYA: PAS has lambasted Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad for saying that the caning of two women convicted of attempting to commit a sexual act gives a bad impression of Islam.

PAS secretary-general Datuk Takiyuddin Hassan (pic) said that the caning was in accordance with syariah laws for hudud and takzir cases.
