Tumpu halang Muslim berjudi, Ramkarpal beritahu Sanusi
Pemimpin DAP berkata menteri besar Kedah patut hormat keputusan Mahkamah Persekutuan dan tidak berusaha cari jalan lain haram premis judi.
DAP's Ramkarpal Singh has advised Kedah's Chief Minister Sanusi Nor to focus on preventing Muslims from gambling, rather than seeking alternative ways to ban it following the recent Federal Court ruling. The court's decision is clear and Sanusi should comply, as it is not his responsibility to find a way to evade it. DAP's legal bureau chief stated that Sanusi should accept the fact that gambling is legal under federal law, given that it does not infringe on the rights of non-Muslims in the country.
Ramkarpal also warned that a complete ban on gambling would only drive demand towards underground gambling circles and online platforms. He reminded Sanusi that prohibiting gambling entirely would only push people towards illegal gambling activities. The Federal Court dismissed Kedah's application to overturn the ban on the state government's refusal to amend the license for gambling and lottery operators on August 12.
