Re^2: Unsuccessfully passing arguments to a bash command

I've tried this. But even if I write

#!/usr/bin/perl
my $cmd = qq|/bin/bash -ic untouchable john mike bill|;
print $cmd;
system ($cmd);
[download]

The output is

/bin/bash -ic untouchable john mike billStarting...
done!
[download]

Somehow the arguments john mike bill are getting lost.
