COMMENT Last week on Oct 3, 2013, the rakyat witnessed the return of detention without trial 2.0.

This time it disguised itself as the Prevention of Crime (Amendment and Extension) Bill 2013, which was passed with a voice of majority by BN MPs in the Dewan Rakyat past midnight, with the Parliament clock once again stopped for it to be voted on for the third time, since one and a half years ago.
