Amnesty International Malaysia is urging the government to pardon two brothers, Suthar B and B Ramesh Batumalai, who are on death row for a murder conviction, citing recent pardons granted in two similar cases recently.

It noted that in February, the Selangor sultan pardoned Shahrul Izani Suparman of his death sentence, reducing it to life imprisonment.

Also last month, the Agong pardoned Nigerian native Osariakhi Ernest Obayangbon of a death sentence.
