Hamza Kashgari filed a habeas corpus application claiming that his arrest and subsequent deportation were unlawful. The judge, Datuk Rohana Yusuf, rejected the application on the grounds that "he was no longer in the country."
Part of the controversy surrounding this whole affair is that Kashgari was arrested AFTER he deleted his tweets. As in there was no longer any evidence of his blasphemous tweets. But as we know, a warrant for his arrest went out on February 8th and he was deported from Malaysia on February 12th.
As terrible and messed up as this thing is, Kashgari still should've known better. Insulting the Prophet Muhammad is an offense that comes with a death sentence in the country.
Leslie out.
