Gagal hadir beri keterangan, Exco Terengganu kena waran tangkap

KUALA TERENGGANU: Mahkamah Pilihan Raya Terengganu pada Khamis mengeluarkan waran tangkap kepada Exco Pembangunan Insan, Dakwah dan Penerangan Terengganu, Mohd Nor Hamzah kerana gagal mematuhi perintah mahkamah.

Hakim Datuk Hassan Abdul Ghani yang bersidang sebagai Hakim Pilihan Raya mengeluarkan perintah itu selepas Mohd Nor gagal hadir memberikan keterangan di perbicaraan Petisyen Pilihan Raya bagi Parlimen Marang pada Khamis.

Peguam pempetisyen, Amin Othman memohon satu waran tangkap dikeluarkan mahkamah terhadap Mohd Nor yang merupakan Ahli Dewan Undangan Negeri (ADUN) Bukit Payong atas kegagalan tersebut.

Amin ketika dihubungi Sinar Harian berkata, pada 14 Mac lalu Hassan telah mengarahkan Mohd Nor untuk hadir ke mahkamah pada Khamis pagi untuk menyambung memberikan keterangan.

“Namun begitu, pada pagi ini (16 Mac), YB Mohd Nor telah gagal untuk menghadirkan diri ke mahkamah. Perbicaraan bagi petisyen Pilihan Raya Parlimen Marang akan disambung pada 19 Mac nanti,” katanya.

Mahkamah Pilihan Raya Terengganu sebelum ini menolak bantahan awal Ahli Parlimen Marang, Tan Sri Abdul Hadi Awang bagi menolak petisyen pilihan raya yang difailkan calon Barisan Nasional (BN), Jasmira Othman untuk membatalkan kemenangannya dalam Pilihan Raya Umum ke-15 (PRU15) lalu.

Mahkamah Pilihan Raya telah menetapkan tarikh bagi sambung bicara petisyen ini pada 19 Mac dan dijangka selesai pada 21 Mac. - 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.
