Hanya kerana minta dimasakkan nasi, Nenek mati dicincang oleh cucunya di Tenom, Sabah

Hanya kerana meminta dimasakkan nasi, seorang nenek mati dalam keadaan tragik apabila dicincang seluruh tubuh oleh cucunya di rumahnya di Kampung Melalap di sini, kelmarin.

Ketika kejadian, hanya mangsa, Dayu Rawang, 77, dan cucu perempuannya yang berusia 27 tahun itu berada di rumah kerana anggota keluarga lain menghadiri majlis berikutan kematian jiran di rumah berhampiran.

Menurut sumber, sebaik bapa suspek yang mahu dikenali Abdul Hamid, 47, pulang ke rumah bersama seorang lagi anak berusia 15 tahun kira-kira jam 10 malam, dia curiga kerana panggilannya tidak bersahut.

Abdul Hamid masuk ke rumah dan menuju dapur dan terkejut apabila melihat jenazah ibunya, Dayu Rawang, terbujur dalam keadaan ngeri dengan berlumuran darah.
Dia bertambah terkejut apabila melihat suspek yang juga anak perempuannya berada di sisi mayat warga emas berkenaan sambil memegang pisau.

KUALA LUMPUR, 25 Ogos — Pemimpin parti politik dan bukan politik Islam tidak wajar dengan mudah menyalahkan pihak gereja jika menghulurkan bantuan kepada Muslim memerlukan bantuan jika mereka sendiri gagal menjaga kebajikan pihak terbabit, kata bekas mufti Perlis.

By : UBF MEDIA

Dr. Jeffrey had supported the reasons put forward by the Sedomon family through Nilakrisna James, UBF co-founder and granddaughter of OKK Sedomon Bin OKK Gunsanad, who had voiced the Sedomon family’s objection to the proposed takeover of the Sedomon ancestral home in Bingkor to be converted into a Warisan Budaya by the Jabatan Muzium Sabah.

Reflections of Marina Mahathir on Christians-bashing Malaysia

Muslim leaders in Malaysia have been aping the Arabs although they don't as they do since our so-called independence.

Look at how long some of our Prime/Chief ministers have been serving and how corrupted most of them are. Look at how they repress the people of other Faiths while holding up to the world that religious freedom is enshrined in the Malaysian constitution.Look at how even now with the tsunami-changing events in the Middle East they are still so petty minded that they have to stamp the Bible, which is the holy book of Christians, with their officious, senseless "chops". How would they react if we ask the authorities to stamp the Koran to the effect that it's meant only for Muslims?

Implications of Sarawak election on Sabah

In view of the super confidence of DAP that only they can bring change to Sabah, we wish to share with the public our party analysis of the DAP performance in the April Sarawak state elections and its implications on the coming general elections.

Other than national issues, the community generally found it difficult to do business due to monopolistic policies.

Government must consult all stakeholders, especially Orang Asli, on proposed Orang Asli land titles policy

By Lim Chee Wee, President of Malaysian Bar

The Malaysian Bar is dismayed with the recent announcement by the Jabatan Kemajuan Orang Asli (“JAKOA”) in relation to the finalisation of the proposed Orang Asli land titles policy.  Grievances in reaction to this announcement voiced by various members of the Orang Asli community to the Malaysian Bar suggest that the Government has once again not engaged in prior consultation with Orang Asli and failed to obtain the free, prior and informed consent of affected Orang Asli in finalising the policy.  Malaysia has committed to do so in the pledges it has made in the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples 2007 (“UNDRIP”).
