Home Minister Saifuddin Nasution Ismail indicated that he has no intention of reviewing the Security Offences (Special Measures) Act (Sosma).
It is important to note that Saifuddin Nasution is a supposed reformist and PKR-Pakatan Harapan had been campaigning against Sosma for years.
BFM talks to Suaram executive director Sevan Doraisamy about why we need to abolish Sosma.
Also included is a portion of an old interview, where former Petaling Jaya MP Maria Chin Abdullah spoke about her experience of being detained without trial under Sosma.
