No threat to syariah law, says Selangor exco man

KLANG: The Federal Court decision on the Kelantan syariah law enactments does not in any way imply or insinuate that state Islamic laws were under threat or were inferior to federal laws.

“A crime is still a crime. It does not mean that a crime under Islamic law is not a crime under civil law,” said Selangor Islamic and cultural innovation committee chairman Dr Mohammad Fahmi Ngah (pic).
