Putra president Ibrahim Ali has criticised what he described as a “disgraceful disparity” in compensation awarded to the families of Amri Che Amat and Pastor Raymond Koh, whose cases of enforced disappearance were both ruled as failures of state protection.

In a statement today, Ibrahim said both court decisions clearly found national security agencies responsible for failing to safeguard the victims, and, therefore, the principle of compensation must be applied equally.
