Death penalty for Lahad Datu intruders just and fitting, says Azalina

PUTRAJAYA: The Federal Court’s decision to uphold the death sentence for seven Filipino nationals is seen as just, given the cruelty and violence they inflicted upon Malaysia’s security forces, who perished during the 2013 Lahad Datu incursion in Kampung Tandou, says Datuk Seri Azalina Othman Said.

The Minister in the Prime Minister's Department (Law and Institutional Reform) also said the ruling was a positive step for the country.
