MARCH 18 — First, I will like to clarify I had published all my statements regarding the abolition of mandatory death sentence in my personal capacity as an elected Adun. They were my views and the opinions of many people I spoke to. The statements were NOT the views of DAP and I hold no party position whatsoever.
This was totally uncalled for as she should have checked with any PH leaders, including DAP leaders. She will know easily this was a promise agreed on by all the component parties. How did she decide to attack DAP alone and not PKR, Amanah or Bersatu defies logic. As we know, we have a moratorium on the death sentence at the moment and nobody on the death row is being executed. Even if death sentence is abolished, these inmates will still be required to serve a supposedly minimum 30-year life sentence.
We have to make sure the accused gets a fair trial and the judiciary process is robust and beyond abuse. The human rights of the accused and the justice for the victims as death sentence are not a zero sum game, they can co-exist.
