SHAH ALAM: Selangor Ruler Sultan Sharafuddin Idris Shah has ordered the immediate establishment of a special committee to conduct an in-depth and critical study on the competency of State Legislative Assemblies to enact Islamic laws under state enactments and the jurisdiction of Syariah Courts.
Sultan Sharafuddin is of the opinion that it can only be resolved by taking legislative action through specific amendments to the relevant laws to grant the state legislative assemblies broader powers in formulating provisions related to Syariah criminal offences for Muslims. In light of this, Sultan Sharafuddin said he hoped that the Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department Datuk Dr Mohd Na'im Mokhtar, who was also present, could take immediate steps towards the formation of the special committee and propose the solutions to MKI and the Conference of Rulers.
