Press Statement By DAP Secretary-General And MP For Bagan Lim Guan Eng In Kuala Lumpur On 10.10.2014. <\/p>\n
Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department Nancy Shukri has compounded her egregious justification of the Attorney-General\u2019s Chambers\u2019s failure to prosecute Perkasa president Ibrahim Ali under the Sedition Act, because of his threat to burn copies of the Bible(in Bahasa Malaysia and Iban) with the term “Allah”, was merely to defend Islam with an even worse blunder in her latest explanation. By explaining that not prosecuting Ibrahim Ali for threatening to burn Malay or Iban version of the Bibles was in line with the federal constitution, Nancy has shown herself at best, a lawyer with no knowledge of the law or at worst, a closet Perkasa supporter and clone of Ibrahim Ali. <\/p>\n
As a victim of Sedition Act who was imprisoned for 18 months in Kajang Prison in 1998, this incredible excuse of ‘defending Islam’ does not exist in sedition law and is completely unacceptable. Is Nancy pretending or is she completely ignorant of the law as to not know that the intention of the maker or even the truthfulness of the statement is irrelevant in sedition cases and it is an offence to act, speak or publish statements with a seditious tendency? <\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
This is “blatant double standards” in BN’s and the Attorney-General\u2019s inaction against Ibrahim highlights the abuse of sedition laws as a weapon of mass destruction to persecute those who oppose BN but will shield pro-BN parties from any prosecution. Sedition laws are happily used against opposition legislators, including Penang Assemblyman RSN Rayer for attacking UMNO in State Assembly meetings despite enjoying parliamentary immunity when UMNO leaders making such attacks publicly against PR escaped unpunished. Even non-politican academics like UM law lecturer Professor Azmi Sharom is charged for making an academic legal view. <\/p>\n
DAP would like to see Nancy making these outrageous defence of the right to make threats to burn copies of the Bible with the term \u2018Allah\u2019 by repeating it in front of Christians in her home state of Sarawak that, \u201cThe decision by the Attorney-General Chambers to not prosecute Ibrahim was because the context of his speech was in line with the spirit in Article 11(4) of the Federal Constitution\u201d. Article 11 (4) refers to the right to freedom of religion as well as the prohibition of propagating other faiths to those who profess Islam. <\/p>\n
Even Sarawak Land Development Minister Tan Sri Dr James Masing has said that this placed Islamist extremists above the law and that \u201cit is acceptable to burn the Bibles, insult believers of other faiths and do disrespectful acts in defence of the sanctity of Islam\u201d. BN and Nancy\u2019s act of defending Ibrahim was “most dangerous”, as it would allow other extremist groups who made provocative statements and actions to get away with their act by offering a similar excuse.<\/p>\n
Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak might as well dissolve his Coalition of Moderates if this is how the religious faith and rights of non-Muslims are treated. DAP demands BN to immediately reverse this dangerous policy shift by immediately prosecuting Ibrahim Ali to prevent the downward spiral of a dark age of intolerance against non-Muslim in Malaysia that will harm national unity, jeorpardise national integration, damage racial relations and threaten religious harmony. <\/p>\n
DAP appreciates the support of many Muslim groups who were equally shocked by this dangerous policy of BN and opposed the dangerous justifcation of Nancy by pointedly reminding that the Quran or Islam does not demand the burning of religious books of non-Muslim relgions. Would BN and Nancy summon the necessary courage to meet and explain this latest policy decision of BN with Christians and other religious groups who are distraught, distressed and disturbed by this dangerous development?<\/p>\n

Kenyataan media oleh Setiausaha Agung DAP merangkap Ahli Parlimen Bagan, Lim Guan Eng di Kuala Lumpur pada 10 Oktober 2014.<\/p>\n
DAP menghargai sokongan kumpulan-kumpulan Muslim yang turut sama terkejut dengan dasar berbahaya BN dan menentang justifikasi bahaya Nancy Shukri dengan mengingatkan bahawa Al-Quran dan Islam tidak menyuruh membakar kitab suci agama bukan Islam.<\/strong><\/p>\n Menteri di Jabatan Perdana Menteri Nancy Shukri telah menambah justifikasinya yang begitu mengejutkan terhadap kegagalan Jabatan Peguam Negara untuk mendakwa presiden Perkasa Ibrahim Ali di bawah Akta Hasutan berikutan ugutannya untuk membakar salinan-salinan Bible (Dalam Bahasa Malaysia dan Iban) yang menggunakan kalimah \u2018Allah\u2019, sebagai hanya untuk mempertahankan Islam dengan kesilapan yang lebih besar dalam penjelasan terbarunya. Dengan menerangkan bahawa dengan tidak mendakwa Ibrahim Ali kerana mengugut untuk membakar Bible versi Bahasa Malaysia dan Iban sebagai bertepatan dengan Perlembagaan Persekutuan, Nancy telah memperlihatkan dirinya sebagai sekurang-kurangnya seorang peguam yang tidak memahami undang-undang, atau lebih teruk lagi seorang penyokong Perkasa dalam diam dan klon kepada Ibrahim Ali.<\/p>\n Sebagai mangsa Akta Hasutan yang telah dipenjara selama 18 bulan di Penjara Kajang pada tahun 1998, alasan \u2018mempertahankan Islam\u2019 tidak wujud dalam undang-undang hasutan dan langsung tidak boleh diterima. Adakah Nancy sedang berpura-pura atau beliau sememangnya jahil undang-undang sehinggakan tidak tahu bahawa niat pembuat kenyataan berbaur hasutan mahupun kebenaran kenyataan itu adalah tidak relevan dalam kes hasutan; serta melakukan sesuatu, bercakap atau menyiarkan kenyataan berbaur hasutan adalah satu kesalahan?<\/p>\n Inilah double standard dalam keengganan BN dan Peguam Negara untuk bertindak terhadap Ibrahim Ali yang menampakkan bagaimana undang-undang hasutan disalahguna sebagai senjata pemusnah untuk menindas mereka yang melawan BN, manakala bagi yang pro-BN ia digunakan sebagai pelindung daripada sebarang pendakwaan. Undang-undang hasutan digunakan sesuka hati terhadap pembuat undang-undang dari kalangan pembangkang, termasuk ADUN Pulau Pinang RSN Rayer kerana menyerang Umno di dalam sidang DUN walaupun menikmati kekebalan sementara apabila pemimpin Umno melakukan serangan sedemikian terhadap Pakatan Rakyat, mereka bebas tidak dihukum. Malah ahli akademik yang tidak berkait politik seperti pensyarah undang-undang UM Profesor Azmi Sharom pun didakwa kerana memberi pandangan undang-undang secara akademik. <\/p>\n DAP ingin melihat Nancy mempertahankan \u2018hak\u2019 untuk mengugut mahu membakar Bible yang menggunakan kalimah Allah di hadapan penganut Kristian di Sarawak, negerinya; bahawa keputusan Jabatan Peguam Negara untuk tidak mendakwa Ibrahim adalah kerana konteks ucapannya adalah selari dengan semangat Perkara 11(4) Perlembagaan Persekutuan. Perkara 11(4) merujuk kepada hak kebebasan beragama serta halangan menyebarkan agama lain kepada mereka yang beragama Islam. <\/p>\n Malah Menteri Pembangunan Tanah Sarawak Tan Sri Dr James Masing telah mengatakan bahawa ini meletakkan ekstremis Islam melampaui undang-undang serta \u2018membolehkan membakar Bible, menghina penganut agama lain serta melakukan perbuatan terkutuk demi mempertahankan kesucian Islam\u2019. Tindakan BN dan Nancy mempertahankan Ibrahim adalah sangat berbahaya, kerana ia akan membolehkan kumpulan-kumpulan ekstremis lain membuat kenyataan dan tindakan provokatif dan kemudian memberikan alasan yang sama untuk bebas daripada sebarang pendakwaan.<\/p>\n Jika beginilah caranya kepercayaan agama dan hak warga bukan Islam dilayan, lebih baik Perdana Menteri Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak bubarkan sahaja Gerakan Moderatnya. DAP menuntut supaya BN segera berpatah balik daripada perubahan dasar yang sangat bahaya ini dengan segera mendakwa Ibrahim Ali bagi mengelakkan daripada terjerumus ke zaman gelap hilangnya toleransi terhadap orang bukan Islam di Malaysia yang akan membawa keburukan kepada perpaduan nasional, menjejaskan integrasi nasional, merosakkan hubungan kaum dan menggugat keharmonian agama.<\/p>\n DAP menghargai sokongan kumpulan-kumpulan Muslim yang turut sama terkejut dengan dasar berbahaya BN dan menentang justifikasi bahaya Nancy Shukri dengan mengingatkan bahawa Al-Quran dan Islam tidak menyuruh membakar kitab suci agama bukan Islam. Adakah BN dan Nancy berani untuk bertemu dan menjelaskan keputusan dasar baru BN ini bersama penganut Kristian dan kumpulan agama lain yang begitu bingung, resah dan gelisah dengan perkembangan yang begitu berbahaya ini?<\/p>\n LIM GUAN ENG<\/p>\n —-Mandarin Version —<\/p>\n
