Ramkarpal rebuts deputy IGP's 'misconceived' defence of Sosma

A DAP lawmaker has criticised Deputy Inspector-General of Police Ayob Khan Mydin Pitchay’s recent backing of the contentious Security Offences (Special Measures) Act 2012 (Sosma).

Labelling the deputy IGP’s remarks as “misconceived,” the party’s Bukit Gelugor MP Ramkarpal Singh said support for the legislation “ignores” the fact that such laws are being used against ordinary citizens, resulting in serious breaches of rights.
