希盟领袖到打昔牛汝莪示威, 促沙布丁为先奸后娶论辞职
刘嘉铭 发表于 2017年4月6日 晚上8点13分 更新于 2017年4月6日 晚上11点40分
尽管巫统打昔牛汝莪国会议员沙布丁归咎媒体针对“先奸后娶论”的报导失准及断章取义，槟城希盟领袖今日仍直捣沙布丁的选区示威，并施压他辞职。
以槟首长政治秘书黄汉伟为首的大约100名示威者在傍晚6点，在打昔牛汝莪的夜市集附近高举“开除沙布丁”的横幅抗议。
他们展示的字报分别写“谁要强奸犯当女婿”、“打昔牛汝莪国会议员不没顾及受害者”和“女性被迫害”等字眼。
抨查哈拉没谴责反辩护
黄汉伟表示，由於沙布丁（见图）來自槟城，他们在当地居民邀请下前来夜市集巡视和示威，以表达对后者的失望和可耻。
“虽然他事后发了一项声明解释，但显然毫无悔意，仿佛他的所言正确，错在媒体。不过，我们听回他的言论，他确实是曾发表‘先奸后娶’论。”
“他是前槟州议员，我们曾在议会内辩论交锋。这一次，他的言论已越过了底线。但许多人只发文告表达不满，不见有人到他选区抗议，所以我们今天就来了。”
也是亚依淡州议员的黄汉伟也批评，槟州反对党领袖查哈拉不仅没谴责沙布丁，反而为其辩护。
衍生而非解决社会问题
槟州诚信党妇女组主席艾达（Aida Yusof Rawa）则炮轰，沙布丁不仅没利用其立法者的身份保护强奸案的受害者，反而发表一些言论来无形让人觉得他在鼓吹“先奸后娶”。
“他说，先奸后娶有助解决社会问题。对我们而言，这不仅无助解决问题，而是令社会问题加倍严重。”
她奉劝沙布丁应该思考，如何真正帮助受害者才对。
“婚姻不只是性行为，也包含责任等。我们不愿意一些发生在砂拉越的案例在此重演。就算家长同意让双方结婚，强奸犯依然要面对法律的制裁。”
促否决建议以保护孩子
城行动党妇女组领袖兼双溪槟榔州议员林秀琴在示威上致词时呼吁，各造否决沙布丁的建议，并要求沙布丁辞职或被革除，以保护身边的孩子和女性。
“我们要让全世界知道，我们不赞同让强奸犯成为受害者的丈夫。”
槟州公正党妇女组主席兼槟岛市议员诺查丽娜（Nur Zarina Zakaria）则批评，沙布丁的言论仿佛出自一名没受教育的人士，而查哈拉的立场令人感到心寒。
沙布丁前天宣称男子先奸后娶，有忏悔之意，是解决社会问题的方案。他表示，强奸确实是罪行，但法律并没禁止强奸犯与受害者结婚。如此一来，强奸犯不仅可藉此忏悔，还有利受害者，让受害者有个丈夫。
结果此言一出，引起内阁部长和朝野领袖等连番挞伐，纷纷促他收回言论道歉。唯沙布丁之后已否认，鼓吹性犯罪和支持强奸犯。

Pengundi Tasek Gelugor mahu Shabudin letak jawatan
| April 6, 2017
Mereka melahirkan rasa loya dengan kenyataan wakil rakyat mereka mengenai perkahwinan rogol statutori yang turut mendapat liputan media antarabangsa
BUTTERWORTH: Kira-kira 50 penunjuk perasaan di Tasek Gelugor mahu ahli Parlimen mereka, Datuk Shabudin Yahaya, dilepaskan dari semua jawatan akibat kenyataannya mengenai perkahwinan rogol statutori.
Tunjuk perasaan itu, diketuai para ketua wanita Pakatan Harapan, berlangsung selama 45 minit, dipenuhi ucapan menuntut Shabudin memohon maaf, meletak jawatan dan dipecat.
Penunjuk perasaan membawa plakad berhimpun di tempat letak kereta di Jalan Gelugor, Permatang Berangan sebelum berarak ke pasar malam berhampiran.
Pengundi yang menyertai tunjuk perasaan itu mahu Shabudin meletak jawatan. Ada juga yang mahu beliau meminta maaf.
Muhammad Zakwan Mustafa Kamal, 20, dari Permatang Berangan berkata, Shabudin harus bertanggungjawab diatas kenyataan itu.
“Kenyataan Shabudin menimbulkan kemarahan dalam kalangan wanita. Dia tak patut mengeluarkan kenyataan seperti itu. Saya cadangkan dia minta maaf.”
Thangaletchumi Ragavan, 50, dari Pokok Machang, masih terkejut dengan kenyataan Shabudin itu.
“Saya ingatkan seorang wakil rakyat berpengalaman akan memberikan jawapan yang bernas mengenai perkahwinan kanak-kanak. Pesan saya kepada Shabudin: Letak jawatan kalau masih ada maruah.”
Ketua Biro Dakwah dan Syariah Amanah Ahmad Fahmi A Bakar berkata Shabudin yang mempunyai latar belakang berkhidmat di agensi agama sepatutnya lebih arif.
Fahmi berkata dakwaan Shabudin kononnya pandangannya itu dibenarkan Islam tidak betul kerana ia berdasarkan kepada fiqh lama.
Beliau berkata Shabudin sebagai seorang pengamal syariah sepatutnya lebih berhati-hati.
“Sebagai seorang saudara seagama, saya harap kita dapatkan kepastian sebelum berkata apa-apa.”
Ketua Wanita DAP Pulau Pinang Lim Siew Khim berkata kenyataan Shabudin menyebabkan anak perempuannya yang berusia 9 tahun bertanyakan adakah benar apa yang dikatakan itu.
“Anak perempuan saya tanya mengenai perkara ini, mengenai ‘boleh kahwin’ dan sebagainya. Saya nak jawab apa?
“Kalau anak perempuan saya boleh tanya soalan sebegitu, boleh kamu bayangkan apa yang Shabudin sudah lakukan kepada negara ini? Dia sudah kelirukan anak-anak kita.”
Ketua Wanita PKR Pulau Pinang Noor Zarinah Zakaria berkata konsep Shabudin mengenai ruang taubat tidak boleh diterima.
Beliau berkata ahli Parlimen itu kelihatan seperti seorang yang tidak berpendidikan memberikan penyelesaian tidak logik kepada perogol.
“Di mana kewajaran menutup rogol dengan perkahwinan? Itu perkara salah! Kami sangat malu dengan kenyataannya.”
Ketua Wanita Amanah Pulau Pinang Aida Yusof Rawa berkata Shabudin boleh mengakhiri semua kecaman ini dengan “menarik balik kenyataan dan meminta maaf”.
Sementara itu, Setiausaha Organisasi DAP Pulau Pinang Wong Hon Wai berkata Umno perlu memecat Shabudin, lebih cepat, lebih baik.
Wong berkata media antarabangsa turut memberi liputan ke atas kenyataan Shabudin, menyebabkan imej negara tercalar.
“Tiada maaf untuk Shabudin. Seorang wakil rakyat tidak sepatutnya membuat kenyataan seperti itu. Kalau dia tak mahu letak jawatan, dia patut ‘kena pecat’,” katanya.
Shabudin, seorang bekas kadi daerah di Pulau Pinang, berkata di Dewan Rakyat semalam mungkin lebih baik perempuan dikahwinkan dengan perogolnya supaya dia tidak melalui masa depan yang gelap.
Mungkin perempuan itu akan berasa lebih selamat daripada ditinggalkan begitu sahaja,” kata Shabudin, dan menambah ia mungkin boleh mengubati masalah sosial.
Beliau juga dilaporkn berkata seorang perempuan yang akil baligh daripada usia 9 tahun mungkin sesuai untuk berkahwin secara rohani dan jasmani.
Susulan kecaman daripada pelbagai pihak termasuk daripada kalangan menteri Umno dan BN, Shabudin semalam berkata kenyataannya dipetik di luar konteks.

'Would you accept a rapist as a son-in-law?'
Susan Loone
(Updated )
"Would you accept a rapist as your son-in-law?" a group of Pakatan Harapan supporters who were rallying in Tasek Gelugor today asked MP Shabudin Yahaya.
They carried placards with words screaming "Kami malu Budin, ooiii", "Bawah umur 16 maknanya (Rape below 16 years old means) "statutory rape", "Undur (Resign) Shabudin" and "Pecat (sack) Shabudin".
They also shouted slogans asking to protect and preserve women's dignity, adding that rape is a crime and that by marrying rapists off to their victims did not solve any problems.
The rally was attended by about 100 members from DAP, PKR and Parti Amanah Negara.
The group, especially women, were outraged that Shabudin had suggested in Parliament that victims should marry their rapist as that could address social problems.
Shabudin also incurred the wrath of his opponents when he said that nine or 12-year-olds who had the body of 18-year-olds were 'physically and spiritually' ready for marriage.
During her speech, DAP Sungai Pinang assemblyperson Lim Siew Khim said the rally was intended to tell the whole world that the group strongly opposed Shabudin's suggestion to address the crime of rape.
"Can a rapist be your husband? Do you agree to have a rapist as your son-in-law?" she asked, and the crowd replied "No!". Someone in the crowd shouted "He must be punished".
"Yes, the perpetrators of the crime must face punishment and law. Not only women oppose Shabudin's statement, but men are also angry, and we do not want an MP like Shabudin," she added.
Penang PKR wanita chief Nur Zarina Zakaria said as a lawmaker, Shabudin should seek stronger punishment for rapists, to deter such crimes.
"He should not be seen as promoting or encouraging rape," she added.
PKR Penang Youth chief Asrol Sani Abdul Razak asked the women who attended the rally "Do you want to marry a rapist?", and they replied in the negative.
"We come here not as members of political parties but as citizens, we want Shabudin to be sacked (as an Umno member)," he added.
Ahmad Fahmi A Bakar, who heads Penang Amanah's Dakwah and Syariah bureau, said Shabudin's remark is not in line with Islamic principles, as suggested by an Umno leader.
"Marrying the rapist will not solve the problem of rape, but may invite more problems for the victim," he added.
He was responding to State Umno Wanita chief Jahara Hamid who urged others to "Please understand our religion and do not misinterpret us".
The Umno Teluk Ayer Tawar assemblyperson said although certain quarters did not accept Shabudin's statement, that was the reality on the ground.
"Shabudin is speaking from experience as he has gone through it," said the state opposition leader, defending Shabudin, who was a former syariah court judge.

Tasek Gelugor protesters ask Shabudin to quit
| April 6, 2017
Voters in Tasek Gelugor constituency express disgust at their MP's statements
concerning rape and child marriage which had been picked up by the international press.
BUTTERWORTH: About 50 protesters in Tasek Gelugor have demanded that the MP of the constituency, Shabudin Yahaya, be relieved of all positions since his contentious rape-then-marry statements in Parliament.
The protest, led by the chiefs of the women’s wings of Pakatan Harapan, lasted about 45 minutes, with speeches demanding Shabudin’s apology, resignation and sacking.
Protesters with placards gathered at the open carpark off Jalan Gelugor in Permatang Berangan before marching on to the nearby pasar malam.
Voters who turned up asked him to resign as MP. Others asked that he apologise for his remarks.
Muhammad Zakwan Mustafa Kamal, 20, of Permatang Berangan, said Shabudin should own up to his mistake and retract his statements.
“Shabudin’s statements have caused an emotional uproar among women. He should not have said what he said. I suggest that he says sorry.”
Thangaletchumi Ragavan, 50, of Pokok Machang, said she was still in shock at what Shabudin had said.
“I expect such a senior YB to give an educated answer on child marriage and such. I have a message for you, YB Shabudin: just do the honourable thing and resign.”
Penang Amanah dakwah and shariah bureau chief Ahmad Fahmi A Bakar said Shabudin, given his previous prolific roles in Islamic agencies, should have known better.
Fahmi said Shabudin’s claim that his views were allowed in Islam were incorrect as they were based on old “fiqh” (understanding).
He said Shabudin should be careful with his words as a shariah practitioner.
“I hope, as a friend in Islam, that we should ‘mendapat kepastian’ (get confirmation) before we say anything.”
Penang DAP Wanita leader Lim Siew Khim said Shabudin’s remarks had caused her nine-year-old daughter to ask if what he had said was true.
“My daughter is asking me what this whole fuss is about, about ‘boleh kahwin’ and what not. How am I supposed to answer her?
“If my daughter can ask me such questions, can you imagine what Shabudin has done to the country? He has confused our young girls.”
Penang PKR Wanita chief Noor Zarinah Zakaria said Shabudin’s concept of concealment of the crime of rape was despicable.
She said the MP appeared to be an uneducated person spewing out illogical solutions for would-be rapists.
“How can you cover up rape with marriage? That is wrong! We are so embarrassed by what he has said.”
Penang Amanah Wanita chief Aida Yusof Rawa said Shabudin could put an end to all this by doing the honourable thing: “retract and say sorry”.
Meanwhile, Penang DAP organising secretary Wong Hon Wai said Umno should sack Shabudin, the sooner, the better.
Wong said even the international press had picked up Shabudin’s nonsensical statements, giving Malaysia a bad image.
“There is no ‘sorry’ for him. His statement is unbecoming of a YB. If he does not want to resign, he should ’kena pecat’.”
Shabudin, formerly a district kadi in Penang, said in the Dewan Rakyat yesterday that there was nothing wrong with a girl getting married to her rapist and that in fact, the marriage would be good for the victim who would otherwise have a bleak future.
“The girl may feel safer rather than being just left like that. They can live in peace,” Shabudin had said, adding that it could be the remedy to social problems.
He also said that a nine-year-old girl was ready for marriage, physically and spiritually.
Following the outcry from many quarters, including BN and Umno ministers, Shabudin yesterday said his statements were taken out of context.
