Syariah Court engagement will include Perikatan members, says Na'im


KUALA LUMPUR: An engagement process to empower syariah courts will include Perikatan Nasional members and the public, says Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department (Religious Affairs) Datuk Dr Mohd Na’im Mokhtar.

He said that the recently-begun engagement process seeks to get as many views as possible on the matter, adding that it comes after the Federal Court decision of Feb 9 ruling that 16 provisions in the Kelantan Syariah Enactment are unconstitutional.
