Sexual harassment and bullying must come to an end. These behaviours are not appropriate in a civilised society. Each and every employer is responsible to stop their employees from behaving in this unacceptable manner. The aim of this book is to help employers and human resource department staff achieve this worthwhile objective. A Practical Approach to Workplace Sexual Harassment and Bullying covers a range of topics helpful to parties with an interest in this topic including: a brief background on sexual harassment and bullying in Malaysia; definitions of sexual harassment and bullying; summaries of cases heard in the Industrial Court relating to sexual harassment; carrying out an investigation into a claim by an employee that he or she has been harassed; taking disciplinary action against suspected sexual harassers or bullies; training and other interventions which can help reduce incidences of this behaviour and an examination of bullying in the Malaysian context. Changing employees’ behaviour is a difficult task but, if successful in eradicating sexual harassment and bullying, it is worth the effort.
The first edition of the book “Wrongful Restraint, Wrongful Confinement, Kidnapping, Rape and Unnatural Offences” was published way back in 1973 and very soon it went out of print very soon. This itself speaks volumes about the richness of contents and significant value of the book.
Since the publication of the first edition there has been a tremendous increase in case law of the Apex Court law have been surveyed and properly allocated int he body of the book after selection under appropriate headings and subheadings so that any point can be easily traced and studied. The claim that the book has acquired for itself the unchallenged statutes of a veritable classic, can brook no contradiction. A sincere attempt has however, been made to maintain the sterling value and distinctive qualities of the original book with no paints spared and no stones unturned.
Worngful Restraint, Wrongful Confinerment, Kidnapping, Criminal Force, Assault, Rape and Unnatural Offences is a very important branch of Criminal Laws.
We hope that this edition like former one would fully cater to the needs of the legal profession, Courts and public at large on this important branch of law and prove to be not only as a useful guide but will become an indispensable book of reference for the day-to-day use the Bench and the Bar alike.

This book analyses the Islamic viewpoint on the rights of a suspect or an accused at all stages of criminal procedures. Al-Qur’an, al-sunnah and other sources of Islamic Law have been the basis of discussion. The opinion of the four established sunni schools have also been referred to. The findings are thereafter compared with Malaysian law. It has been observed that there are more similarities than differences between the two systems of law. In some aspects where there are differences, it is hoped that the implementation of suggestions made throughout this book could harmonise the differences and at the same time refined laws could be introduced in order to maintain justice.
