Sedition arrests meant to create a climate of fear
The International Federation of Journalists (IFJ) and the South East Asia Journalists Union (SEAJU) strongly criticise the increasing suppression of freedom of expression in Malaysia through the use of the Sedition Act, mostly recently in the arrest of a Malaysian cartoonist. The IFJ and SEAJU have urged his immediate release and described it as yet another example of sedition laws violating press freedom.
