PAS told to improve its law-making process


PETALING JAYA: PAS should improve its law-making process in Kelantan following last week’s Federal Court decision on the state’s Syariah Criminal Code instead of using the verdict as political fodder, says a former Islamic Affairs Minister.

“PAS must accept that the decision to strike out 16 provisions in the Kelantan Syariah Criminal Enactment (EJSK) 2019 shows the weakness of the Kelantan legislature,” said Senator Datuk Seri Dr Mujahid Yusof Rawa.
