KUALA LUMPUR – Sepang MP Mohamed Hanipa Maidin has questioned the police’s criminalisation of PKR Youth leaders over their recent protests calling for the resignation of Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) chief commissioner Tan Sri Azam Baki.

The Amanah lawmaker stressed that the Malaysian youth have a right to hold peaceful assemblies and to voice out their opinions.

“With due respect, in my view, there is no need at all for the police to initiate any criminal investigation.

“Let the Malaysian youth be given their rights to exercise their fundamental rights duly enshrined in the federal constitution, i.e to assemble peacefully and to freely speak their minds without any form of intimidation whatsoever,” he said in a statement today.

Additionally, he said that police have other more important issues and crimes to attend to, instead of focusing on trivial matters such as this.

He said that in this day and age, the police should not be criminalising those trying to exercise their fundamental rights.

“We are now in 2022. It is high time for the police to move on.
