Banduan liwat rakan dipenjara 5 tahun, satu sebatan

KOTA BHARU: Seorang banduan dihukum penjara lima tahun dan satu sebatan di Mahkamah Sesyen di sini atas kesalahan meliwat rakan lelaki di Pusat Pemulihan Akhlak di Machang pada tahun lalu.

Hakim Mohd Zul Zakiqudin Zulkifli menjatuhkan hukuman itu terhadap Mohammad Rohaizad Rosli, 27, selepas tertuduh mengaku bersalah atas pertuduhan terbabit.

Mengikut pertuduhan, tertuduh didakwa dengan sengaja melakukan persetubuhan yang bertentangan aturan tabii dengan mangsa yang berusia 33 tahun di sebuah bilik di blok pusat pemulihan terbabit pada jam 1 pagi pada 26 Jun 2022.

Pertuduhan dibuat mengikut Seksyen 377B Kanun Keseksaan (Akta 574) yang memperuntukan hukuman penjara sehingga 20 tahun dan sebatan jika disabitkan kesalahan.

Pendakwaan dikendalikan oleh Timbalan Pendakwa Raya, Wan Nurul Hanini Wan Ahmad Shukry dan tertuduh tidak diwakili peguam.

Pada prosiding itu, Wan Nurul Hanini memohon hukuman setimpal ke atas tertuduh kerana kesalahan dilakukan ketika dia menjalani hukuman kes dadah di Pusat Pemulihan Akhlak Machang.

“Hukuman seharusnya memberi pengajaran kepada tertuduh supaya tidak melakukan kesalahan sama pada masa akan datang,” katanya.

Mohammad Rohaizad dalam rayuannya memohon mahkamah menetapkan hukuman penjara bermula daripada tarikh dia ditangkap. -- Sinar Harian

Consider This: Transnational Repression (Part 2) — Are Our Governments Enabling It?

Authoritarian regimes don’t stop at their own borders—often reaching across countries to track, detain, and deport refugees, activists, and migrants. This is transnational repression: when a state extends its repression beyond its own beyond their borders to control or punish its citizens abroad. Malaysia and Thailand, two of Southeast Asia’s biggest hubs for migrants and refugees, have become key battlegrounds for transnational repression. With Malaysia helming ASEAN chair this year, what role does the region play in resisting, or enabling, transnational repression? On this episode of #ConsiderThis Melisa Idris speaks with Krittaporn Semsantad, Programme Director at the Bangkok-based Peace Rights Foundation.
