PETALING JAYA: It is unacceptable for the government to use the Sedition Act 1948 against caretaker Kedah mentri besar Datuk Seri Muhammad Sanusi Md Nor, say several groups.
Rights group Lawyers for Liberty says the government must immediately suspend the use of the Sedition Act 1948 and subsequently repeal it at the next Parliamentary sitting.Sanusi pleads not guilty to charges under Sedition Act
He said that just as it was “invalid” for previous governments to use the Sedition Act against Pakatan Harapan leaders and other opponents, the same can be said now with Sanusi’s two seditious charges.“The Sedition Act should no longer be part of our criminal justice system and should be consigned to the trash-heap of our colonial past,” he said in a statement on Tuesday .
“I agree with @zaidibrahim that the use of the Act against political opponents by this government is wholly unacceptable. So contrary to the Malaysia we fought for. The Sedition Act must be abolished!” she said in a Twitter post Tuesday morning.
