KOTA KINABALU: Sabah Progressive Party (SAPP) deputy president Amde Sidik is adamant that hudud has no place in Sabah.
He said hudud was never in the spirit of Malaysia, and was never in the agenda prior to the signing of Malaysia Agreement in 1963.
Sidik said hudud law was not only upsetting the structure of the legal system but also the political system as a whole.
“PAS leaders are saying that non-Muslims need not worry because hudud only applies to Muslims. I would say everyone in this country has the legitimate right to be worried.
“On the surface, Muslims may agree because they are scared of being branded as defying God’s law, but I can tell you, many are just as unsure as non-Muslims.
“The very background of the multiethnics and multi religions of Sabahans is different from those in the peninsula,” he said.
“With the rampant abuses in the current systems in the country, what guarantee is there that hudud would not be subject to abuse, when the very same over-zealous people are still holding power?”
Sidek said this reminded him of former Lord President Suffian Mohamed who said that he would not want to go to court to face the judges today even if he was innocent, which meant they couldn’t be trusted.
“If the Sarawak Chief Minister (Adenan Satem) has said it loud and clear that he would not allow hudud into Sarawak, my view and our party’s view for Sabah is the same.” he said.

SAPP: HUDUD TIADA TEMPAT DI SABAH
Timbalan Presiden Parti Maju Sabah (SAPP) Amde Sidik menegaskan bahawa hudud tiada tempat di Sabah.
Beliau berkata hudud tidak pernah wujud dalam semangat Malaysia, dan tidak pernah ada dalam agenda sebelum majlis menandatangani Perjanjian Malaysia pada tahun 1963.
Hudud tidak boleh dilaksanakan disini sebab Sabah mempunyai pelbagai etnik latar belakang dan agama adalah berbeza dari orang-orang di Semenanjung.
"Jika Ketua Menteri Sarawak (Adenan Satem) menegaskan ia adalah jelas bahawa beliau tidak akan membenarkan hudud ke Sarawak, pandangan saya dan pandangan parti kami demi Sabah adalah sama." Katanya.
