| BERNAMA | Monday, October 11th, 2010 21:48:00 |KUANTAN: A lecturer here has called on the government to enact what he calls a Sorcery Criminal Act to deal with such practice in the country.
Ikip International College law lecturer Dr Mahyuddin Ismail said the legislation would give the authorities the powers to act on such practice.
"Not only in Malaysia, other countries are also facing problems concerning sorcery but there are no solutions in terms of the law.
"Sorcery crimes can be proven in syariah as well as in civil court," he said in his working paper at a seminar on sorcery here today.
