In response, Seithigal reached out to People’s Legal Team founder Dinesh Muthal for more insights. Muthal explained, "The light penalty was because there is no specific law in both the Communications and Multimedia Act (CMA) 1998 and the Penal Code covering bullying."
Communications Minister Fahmi Fadzil expressed his disappointment over the meager RM100 fine imposed on the welfare homeowner who used abusive language on TikTok, stating that the fine does not serve as a deterrent. However, he accepted that the court's decision was based on the collected evidence. "This is a very concerning attitude, and I am very disappointed with the fine, which seems very small," he said.
