In a recent debate on amending the Criminal Procedure Act, Saudhullah Hilmy, Parliament member for Thinadhoo North Constituency, called for strengthened laws to address evolving criminal tactics.
Speaking during the discussion, Saudhullah emphasized that as thieves become more sophisticated, legal frameworks must adapt to ensure effective law enforcement.
MP Saudhullah's comments came in support of proposed changes to the Criminal Procedure Act that would grant police the authority to seize funds in third-party accounts involved in scam cases. He argued that this legal adjustment is crucial for preventing the transfer of stolen money and safeguarding public assets.
He highlighted that no matter how robust a law is, criminals will always find ways to exploit it. By enhancing police powers, authorities can better protect public funds and improve their response to financial crimes.
He also addressed concerns that even with improved laws, thieves might find new methods to evade capture. He stressed the need to stay ahead of evolving criminal techniques. The proposed amendment is seen as a step in the right direction, but continuous adaptation is necessary to keep pace with financial crime.
