LING JAYA: The Human Rights Commission of Malaysia (Suhakam) has called on the government to urgently intervene in the imminent executions of four Malaysians convicted of drug trafficking in Singapore. The individuals are K Datchinamurthy, P Pannir Selvam, S Saminathan, and R Lingkesvaran. Suhakam reiterated its opposition to the death penalty, stressing justice, dignity, and the possibility of rehabilitation. It noted the UN Human Rights Committee’s stance that drug offences do not constitute “most serious crimes.” The commission urged Putrajaya to pursue diplomatic and legal avenues while continuing to champion global efforts for abolition of capital punishment.
