PETALING JAYA: The Lawyers for Liberty group has condemned the arrest of two teenagers to assist in an investigation of a viral video depicting a high school student condemning this year’s Malaysian Certificate of Education History exam paper.
“They were just teenagers who were being childish and had already apologised for the video that they made, yet they were treated like hardened criminals,” Zaid said. “Criticisms on the governments should not be criminalised, and childish vents by teenagers even less so,” he added.
