Mohamad Safiq Rosli was the first person to be charged under Malaysia's anti-stalking law for stalking a woman for 8 years. A Magistrate's Court subsequently declared that he was of unsound mind when committing the crime and ordered him to be detained at a psychiatric facility at the Sultan of Selangor's pleasure. Criminal lawyer Sreekant Pillai explains the details of this case and its implications going forward.
