Dr. Haezreena Begum binti Abdul Hamid, a criminologist and Deputy Dean at the Faculty of Law, Universiti Malaya, advocates for viewing terrorism strictly as a criminal act, devoid of religious or ideological connotations. She emphasizes that rehabilitation programs should target the criminal behavior and psychological tendencies of individuals involved in terrorism, ensuring they no longer pose a threat to society. By recognizing terrorism as a crime, we foster a more accurate and just approach to combating this global issue.
Tan Sri Azhar Harun (Art Harun) said that the uniqueness of this case may prompt discussions on legal reforms and the need for more streamlined processes in the Malaysian judicial system to prevent similar situations in the future.
