The Urban Renewal Bill 2025 was deemed to be unconstitutional and should be void as it breaches the people’s rights to own property, as accorded under Article 13 of the Federal Constitution, says Lawyers for Liberty.

LFL’s adviser N Surendran said the bill, tabled for the first reading in Parliament yesterday, poses the biggest dangers to one’s constitutional right and that the Parliament should not knowingly pass an unconstitutional bill.
