PETALING JAYA: Datuk Liew Vui Keong will write a letter to the Singapore government to discuss the death sentence of a Malaysian man who is scheduled to be executed on Friday (Oct 26).

The Minister in the Prime Minister's Department said he hoped that Singapore would commute Prabu Pathmanathan's sentence to life imprisonment.

Prabu, 31, had been sentenced to death for the first time in the state of trafficking in the state of the world on Dec 31, 2014.

"It will be a sad day. I hope they do not do it, "he told reporters on Wednesday (Oct. 24) when asked what would happen if Singapore went ahead with the execution.

Liew, the de facto law minister, said he would also get help from the Foreign Ministry.

Surendran said Prabu's family had been informed that the execution would be held at Changi Prison on Friday.

"The family was only informed of the Friday hanging on Oct 20 via a letter from the Singapore Prison Services, which is less than one week's notice.

"In the same letter, the family was asked to make the necessary funeral arrangements," Surendran said.

According to Surendran, there were doubts surrounding Prabu's belief, adding that the drugs were found in a person driven, and not Prabu.

He also claimed that the confessions obtained from the prosecution for the trial were made under duress.

The Singapore Anti Death Penalty Campaign also called for the Singapore government to halt the execution of Prabu.

"Not only is it irreversible once more, it also creates another set of victims – the loved ones of the executed," it said in a statement.

On October 15, Liew had announced that the Malaysian government would go ahead with plans to completely abolish the death penalty in this country.
