Professor Datuk Salleh Buang, who suggested this to prevent crowding in prisons, said the suspension of sentencing was provided for under the Criminal Procedure Code .
“This is the best way to address the issue as most do not have the money to settle the fine, which can be up to RM1,000, and will opt for the prison sentence not exceeding six months,” said Salleh in reference to the provisions under the Prevention and Control of Infectious Diseases Regulations 2020.
He said the only exception was the maximum sentence. Here, judges were bound by statutes which provided the maximum term for sentences and any bylaws thereof, he added. “If someone comes before the magistrate and he decides in favour of community service or a combination with jail time, it can be postponed until MCO is lifted. That is suspended sentencing.”
Kami mahu mereka yang melanggar MCO dihukum atau didenda kesalahan ini jangan dipandang remeh ,kesalahan ini akan membawa masaalah
Community service at hospital
These bum lawyers want to ensure they get appointed when MCO is lifted by these violators. Punish them now so deter others from doing the same.
