KUDAT: The implementation of a guideline for sentencing wildlife crime - the first of its kind in Malaysia - will allow courts in Sabah to conduct related cases in a fair and consistent manner.

The guideline takes into account the level of culpability of the offence, level of harm caused by the accused, and the aggravating and mitigating factors presented by the prosecution and the accused/defence.
