The Penal Code is the primary law that codifies most criminal offences and procedures in Malaysia. Majority of criminal offences such as murder, theft, robbery, rape, forgery, rioting, terrorism and treason fall under the purview of this Code. The current form of Malaysian Penal Code was originated from the Federated Malay States Penal Code enacted in 1936, which has many similarities with the Indian Penal Code.
