Since both statutes provides for its own punishments, the research will determine the methods or solutions that had been used by the judges in deciding the kidnapping offence's case. In finding all the relevant information, the research also has to look at the legal standing on kidnapping offence in other countries and also comparing the standing with the current position in Malaysia. Apart from that, the position under Islamic regarding kidnapping offence also been discussed.
