PETALING JAYA: A man who was sentenced to death for drug trafficking in 2009 has received a second chance at life after Selangor Ruler Sultan Sharafuddin Idris Shah granted him a pardon.
Shahrul Izani Suparman, 33, and his family were told of the news a week ago at the Sungai Buloh prison.

Daulat Tuanku - Menjungjung tinggi Tuanku. Tuanku's grace and mercy have been most uplifting for Malaysians. Dirgahayu Tuanku.

The man is only 33 and deserves a chance at rehabilitation. He was only 19 when arrested.
Ampuan Tuanku, we now appeal to HRH Yamtuan Besar (Yang Dipertuan Besar Negri Sembilan) for his merciful clemency and royal pardons for brothers Rames and Suthar Batumalai who are now waiting for their death sentences to be carried out. They have been held in prison for 11 years.

We also call upon the Malaysian government to abolish the death sentence. Lives and Deaths must be the sole prerogative of Allah swt.
I, for one, are a tough Law and Order person.
ReplyDeleteThere are crimes so heinous, and where the person has no remorse, that the appropriate penalty, after due process, is DEATH.
