JOHOR BARU, April 18 — The Sessions Court here has sentenced an 19-year-old teenager to seven strokes of a light cane for animal abuse and setting a dog on fire last month.
Under Section 293 of the Criminal Procedure Code , when a youth offender is convicted before any criminal court, the court may instead choose an alternate punishment. “Yap was also not given a prison sentence because it was not appropriate as he is still young and has a long future ahead of him. However, the court takes seriously the inhumane acts committed by him.
“Every living being, including animals, has a fundamental right to be protected by the law and live in peace,” he said in his judgment.
