A DAP lawmaker today hit out at PAS president Abdul Hadi Awang for being duplicitous in the matter of the implementation of hudud punishment, saying that the latter has\u00a0failed to grasp the concept of a “coalition consensus”.<\/p>\n
\"Pua<\/a>

Pua said Hadi is duplicitous and does not grasp the concept of a ‘coalition consensus.’<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n
Petaling Jaya Utara MP Tony Pua is a statement said Hadi’s insistence that he did not betray the coalition by pushing for hudud in Kelantan is fallacious and malicious.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
“It was reported that\u00a0Hadi maintained that the issue of betrayal doesn\u2019t arise, because DAP\u2019s Lim Kit Siang had signed a statement together with fellow Pakatan Rakyat leaders in September 2011 to \u201cagree to disagree\u201d on the implementation of hudud.<\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n
“Datuk Seri Abdul Hadi Awang then went on to argue, fallaciously, that the joint statement \u201caccepted that the Kelantan state government had the right to implement hudud\u201d and they merely gave the DAP room to disagree,” Pua said.<\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
However, he rapped Hadi for using the above ‘agree to disagree’ statement to maliciously twist words justifying PAS Kelantan’s betrayal in the Pakatan Rakyat coalition.<\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n
“The very admission that DAP disagreed to the implementation of hudud means clearly it isn\u2019t Pakatan Rakyat policy.\u00a0 Such an understanding has been voiced repeatedly by various leaders not only from DAP, but also PKR and PAS.\u00a0 PAS Secretary-General Datuk Mustafa Ali for example, told the media and electorate in the Tenang by-elections in January 2011 that hudud is not in Pakatan Rakyat\u2019s Common Policy Framework,” Pua pointed out.<\/span><\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n
Pua said the joint statement in 2011 had merely agreed\u00a0that the Kelantan Islamic punishment enactment was passed in 1993 well before the formation of Pakatan Rakyat.\u00a0 <\/span><\/div>\n

\"Hadi<\/a>

Hadi said he will seek to table a private members bill which, if passed, would allow the state government to enforce hudud punishment in PAS-led Kelantan<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

“Datuk Seri Hadi Awang is obviously disingenuous by claiming that such an acknowledgement is and endorsement for the Kelantan policy,” he added.<\/span><\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n
Pua claimed that PAS Kelantan has not only betrayed PR, but the people who voted for them in the previous general elections.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
“Hadi\u00a0doesn\u2019t understand the concepts of \u201cmutual respect\u201d, \u201cagree to disagree\u201d and worse, doesn\u2019t understand coalition consensus,” he said.<\/div>\n
\n

The hudud controversy erupted last week when the Kelantan state assembly unanimously passed amendments to the Shariah Criminal Code II Enactment 1993 (Amendment 2015).<\/p>\n

Pursuant to the amendments, Hadi expressed that he will personally seek to table a private member’s bill in Parliament in the current sitting (which ends April 9). The bill, if passed, would allow the Kelantan state government — which is controlled\u00a0by PAS — to enforce hudud in the state.<\/p>\n
