Ikim to help explain apex court's Kelantan Syariah code ruling to public

PETALING JAYA: The Institute of Islamic Understanding Malaysia (Ikim) will mobilise efforts and carry out initiatives to provide accurate explanation and fact checks to the public over the Federal Court’s ruling on the Kelantan Syariah Criminal Offences Enactment (I) 2019.

Its director-general Datuk Dr Mohamed Azam Mohamed Adil said the explanation would align with the statement by Chief Justice Tun Tengku Maimun Tuan Mat following the apex court’s ruling that 16 out of 18 provisions in the enactment were null and void.
