Bung Moktar 'not fit' to be MP
- 9 years ago
Gender equality NGOs have stepped up pressure on Bung Moktar Radin to vacate his parliamentary seat for having committed unauthorised polygamy.
Bung Moktar, who is MP for Kinabatangan in Sabah, ran into a protest mounted outside the Lower Syariah Court in Gombak Timur this morning.
Empower executive director Maria Chin Abdullah said Bung Moktar's action sends out the wrong message to society.
"He is a lawmaker and he is breaking the law, but the way the issue is highlighted makes it seem like there's nothing wrong," she told journalists outside the court this morning.
