Court’s verdict nothing to do with Islamic doctrine, says lawyer Nik Elin


PETALING JAYA: The court’s verdict on Friday (Feb 9) has nothing to do with the doctrine of Islam but rather it is about harmonising the laws between both Shariah and civil courts, says lawyer Nik Elin Zurina Nik Abdul Rashid.

She also said that she was hopeful that state assemblies would be more careful when drafting state legislations following the decision made by the Federal Court on Friday (Feb 9).
