Is it illegal or not?

The opening line:

"Abortion in Malaysia is illegal. It is regulated under Sections 312–316 of the Penal Code."

And then:

"There is also a misconception among medical professionals, the general public, and the media that abortion is illegal in Malaysia."

Apparently Wikipedia has fallen prey to this misconception as well! 104.128.175.120 (talk) 00:16, 27 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
