@Makmur bersama:Does the Pardons Board have the authority to grant parole to prisoners? There is a distinction between a pardon and parole. Regarding pardons and parole, Articles 40, 42, and 74(1) stipulate that granting a pardon is the exclusive prerogative of the Yang di-Pertuan Agong, acting on the mandatory advice of the Cabinet via the Pardons Board, which is chaired by the Agong himself. Conversely, parole falls under the exclusive authority of the Prison Committee pursuant to Section 46 of the Prison Act. If a prisoner wishes to seek a pardon, they must apply to the Pardons Board. For parole, however, the application must be made to the Prison Committee, which evaluates the severity of the offense, the prisoner's conduct, and their rehabilitation progress. Anyone dissatisfied with a parole decision may challenge the parole—proposed by the Pardons Board—through the Yang di-Pertuan Agong's People review powers in court under Article 5 of the Federal Constitution. Happy Malaysia Day to all the people of Sabah, Sarawak, and Malaya this 16th of September. [Tears of joy][Tears of joy][Tears of joy]
