Youth and Sports Minister Syed Saddiq Syed Abdul Rahman

PETALING JAYA: Pakatan Youth has called for the release of preacher Wan Ji Wan Hussin, who was found guilty of sedition, and wants the Attorney General to explain why the prosecution appealed for a heavier sentence.

In expressing concern over a High Court decision to extend his nine-month jail sentence to one year, Pakatan Youth said this went against the policies of the Pakatan government concerning the Sedition Act.
