Seditious remarks in Umno youth facebook. Why push the blame onto others?

Recently, a seditious remark saying that voting for Pakatan Rakyat would result to Christianity becoming an official religion of this countrty, has been posted in the Umno youth facebook. When public outrage increased and condemnation from the public went out of control, Umno youth leaders were quick to lodge police report to claim that their facebook has been hacked and another police report by denying that that facebook page was not theirs.

Immediately, many Umno youth leaders came out to claim either someone has hacked into their facebook page or that facebook page doesn't belong to the movement. So, which is which? And the latest statement came from Umno youth chief Khairy Jamaluddin saying that he is willing to be charged under the new Section 114A of the Evidence Act 2012, only after the police announced that the seditious remarks posted in the Umno youth facebook page would not be investigated under Section 114A of the Evidence Act 2012 but instead, it would be investigated under the Communications and Multimedia Act.

Well, in accordance to the Section 114A of the Evidence Act 2012, it is clear, whether you like it or not, if those unwelcome remarks or whatever it is seditious, as long as it appears in your website, facebook or whatsoever will be deemed to have been produced or written by you unless you could prove otherwise.

When this Act was amended to add in this section, all BN members of parliament, including those from Umno had came up in full support for the additional clause to be added into the Act citing there are already too many online users now who are using the worldwide web to criticise and condemn the BN government.

When any facebook page, websites or blogs that are found to have remarks or statements which are deemed to be overly critical towards the BN government, Umno youth leaders and members are quick to lodge police reports nationwide by claiming that all those remarks and statements are "seditious" and could "harm our nation's national security" at large. And guess what happened? The police acted immediately.

But when Umno youth now got eaten up by seditious remarks of their own making, they blamed others. They blamed hackers had intruded into their facebook page and put up such remarks, then they twisted another story again by saying that facebook page doesn't belong to them at all. There it goes, when the Section 114A of the Evidence Act 2012 is effectively in force, the police and even the Attorney-General has decided not to use it on the Umno youth. Guess what again? The authorities are taking a little longer time to investigate this case (of Umno youth) by reasoning that it is complicated.

This means, the overlord could get away with the law of their own doing, while others must face it. Is this fair? No, the law was made to prosecute others but not one of their own even if their guilt has been clearly proven. So, why bother adhering to the law in the first place when those in power are disregarding it blatantly?
