Laws of Malaysia
Act 593
(2) Nothing herein contained shall authorize any Court other
than the High Court to grant a warrant to search for a postal
article, telegram or other document in the custody of the postal
or telegraph authorities.
(3) A search warrant shall ordinarily be directed to the Chief
Police Officer of the State in which it is issued and to some
other officers to be designated by name therein, and all or any
of those police officers may execute the warrant.
(4) The Court issuing a search warrant may direct it to any
person or persons by name, not being police officers, and all or
any one or more of those persons may execute the warrant.
Power to restrict search warrant
55. The Court may if it thinks fit specify in the warrant the
particular place or part of it to which only the search or inspection
shall extend, and the person charged with the execution of the
warrant shall then search or inspect only the place or part so
specified.
Magistrate may issue warrant authorizing search for evidence
of offence
56. If a Magistrate, upon information and after such inquiry as
he thinks necessary, has reason to believe that anything upon,
by or in respect of which an offence has been committed, or
any evidence or thing which is necessary to the conduct of an
investigation into any offence, may be found in any place, he may,
by warrant, authorize the person to whom it is directed to enter,
with such assistance, as may be required, and search the place
for any such evidence or thing, and, if anything searched for is
found, to seize it and bring it before the Magistrate issuing the
warrant, or some other Magistrate, to be dealt with in accordance
with law.
Form of search warrant
57. (1) Every search warrant issued by a Court under this Code
shall be in writing and signed as provided by the Courts of
Judicature Act 1964, or the Subordinate Courts Act 1948, and
shall bear the seal of the Court.
