THE controversial anti-vice Badar squad has vowed to continue its work despite being slammed over its excessive methods.

Azhar Mohamad, the leader of the Sg Petani-based group, said members have explained to Kedah religious exco Dr Ismail Salleh what it does when carrying out raids to nab Muslims committing khalwat (close proximity).

  • Badar squad only focus on Khalwat.
    They should include corruption, mat rampit, drugs and 1mbd crimes when doing their Islamic duties. This self proclaimed enforcers are nothing more than cheeky Taliban youths.

  • Is khalwat the only sin for you idiots? What about bribery, cheating, theft, murder etc?

  • Are we in Afghanistan or Pakistan or some camel herder countries?
    Why bother what the couple do in the private room since all of them already are adults?
    If they commit a sin, It's between them and their god. Why so busy body?

  • Badar has started showing its fang and clearly it is no respect for law and authorities. They are moving into the directions of self proclaimed law enforment organization. This are the similar modus operandi to ISIS or the Taliban and Al Queda. Discussing with Kedah religious authories are just nothing to substantiate as thsi is now a federal case of illegal formation of grouping with intent to crate choas in the guise of religion. The Kedah religious authorities has been quiet and close an eye to their nonscensical activities for two years , expect no actions from them in this discussions. They are totally incompetent and makan gaji buta. I am still waiting for the Kedah MB to find his missing voice. Actually this Badar group grew prominence and embollden by the previous PAS/ Umno reign in making almost a caliphate state and with the change of guard to PH who remain silent was viewed by this misfit group as licence given to continue. The police have better to move in before many other vigilante will start forming themselves and we will have unlawful disorder created unnecessarily.

  • Badar knows that this leadership just like the earlier one lacks the political will or the gonads to bring these extremists to their knees. A shame really.

  • All the politicians are afraid to go and state the truth against these thugs that they are illegal and without any mandate. Mandate by God as they claim is not justifiable, only 1500 years ago. There are laws in this country. The politicians are afraid to lose votes! MB Kedah?!?! Hello!!!! Where are you ?!?!!
