PETALING JAYA: The Malaysian Bar has called on Attorney-General Idrus Harun to provide reasons for the discontinuation of criminal cases of public interest.
Its president, AG Kalidas, said transparency was a central tenet in the rule of law and the basis for public trust and confidence.
Kalidas said the attorney-general was given wide discretionary powers to institute proceedings for a criminal offence. As such, the powers must be exercised with full transparency.
