PASIR GUDANG: Charging the couple who allegedly engaged in an indecent act in a car park in Taman Kota Masai here under Section 377D of the Penal Code is too harsh, says Tebrau MP Jimmy Puah Wee Tse.

He urged the Public Prosecutor's Office to find another charge which would be more suitable considering the age of the duo, instead of using Section 377D of the Penal Code.
