Parti Amanah Negara's Private Member's Bill to strengthen syariah courts is different from the one by PAS president Abdul Hadi Awang, which only focuses on penalties, said Amanah MPs.
"We have met many lawyers and judges, so we believe strengthening the syariah court is important, but it is not just about amending the Syariah Courts (Criminal Jurisdiction) Act (Act 355). It's more than that," Amanah's Kota Raja MP Siti Mariah Mahmud said today.
