Apparently, a session court judge got up on the wrong side
of the bed that morning or maybe the judge was really mad
with an offender(for armed robbery) that he (the judge)
ordered the accused to be whipped 10 times within the
court premises and wait, wait hear this, that the judge would
personally cane the bugger and in presence of the offender's parents!!
Isn't that a bit too much??
A judge caning an offender in court? I haven't this ever
before at least not in Malaysia and as DAP's Lim Kit Siang
would probably say: it's unprecedented, unconstitutional,
unethical illegal action!!
But no the judge says the sentence was provided for by
the law for youthful offenders under Section 293(1) (c)
of the Criminal Procedure Code (CPC).
This piece of news from The STAR really shook me up,
why must the judge does the dirty work like whipping an offender?
Shouldn't caning be carried by those prison wardens?
Or maybe la, the learned judge find 'shiok sendiri' of
spanking someone's ass?
And the part where Sessions Court judge Zainal Abidin
Kamarudin ruled that accused Muhammad Syafiq Abd Wahab,
20, would be whipped in the presence of his parents..
In the presence of his parents? Really hard to believe,
how would you feel if I cane your child 10 times
in front of your own very eyes ah? It's going to hurt his parents'
feelings more than hurting the fella's buttock and it says here
that the caning would be on July 15, I personally pray it won't happen!
If this fella Muhammad Syafiq needs caning and imprisonment,
please send him to the prison authority.
I always thought a judge duty is only pass judgment and be a judge
and a judge only nothing but a judge!
Nothing more nothing less
Be a judge.
