Don't Let Them Off Lightly

Hantu Laut

The government must show it meant business.Not only should they be charged under Section 436 of the Penal Code, they should also be charge for attempt to subvert national security of the nation.

Things could have gone worse if they were retaliations.The whole nation could have gone up in flame.Many thanks to our Christian brothers who have their heads screwed in the right place.

If found guilty, make sure these arsonists are in the slammer for a few years.

I don't want to be a judge but I feel strongly against this kind of behaviour.

This led to the other arrests.

'Case solved'

Among those detained were two brothers and their uncle.

The suspects, aged between 21 and 26, have been remanded for seven days for further investigation.

The case is being investigated under Section 436 of the Penal Code, which is 'mischief by fire or explosive substance with the intent to cause damage'.

The arrest, Barkri believes, closes the case on the arson.

HL,

The fact that they caught these guys actually surprises me (but I guess there was just too much pressure to do something about it). I hope they are not just scapegoats!
Remember the "cow head" incident in Shah Alam? Until now there's been no updates.
As for this case, I think they will haul them to court & then the whole messy business will be forgotten (as per the normal "Msia Boleh" procedure).

Bro Eddy,

Let's wait until the verdict. My confidence in the Malaysian Judiciary will be greatly enhansed if these "#@!*&^!" are made to pay for their crime.
Thanks.
