Abstract

Nearly twenty years ago, the government of the Malaysian state of Kelantan passed the Syariah Criminal Code (II) Enactment 1993 which sought to introduce hudud (lit. ‘limits’) - ‘punishments for serious crimes’ - and in 2002, the state of Terengganu passed a similar enactment. Although not implemented because of jurisdictional conflicts with federal legislations, these issues have not been properly resolved.
