Plot thickens in Malaysia’s corruption trials
Constitutional Supremacy: The Attorney-General Chambers (AGC) officers are fully within their rights to expedite the court cases involving former prime minister Najib Abdul Razak and Umno president Ahmad Zahid Hamidi.
It is abundantly clear that Najib and Zahid are pulling trick after trick to delay the trial by filing multiple applications and taking it all the way to the Federal Court. This is a clear abuse of the judicial process.
Under this circumstance, it is the duty of AGC’s officers to oppose such frivolous applications and ensure that cases are completed within a reasonable time so that justice is served.
AnotherKomentar: The longer the court cases drag on, the likelihood of interference will go up. Justice delayed is justice denied.
The court cluster has deep pockets and let’s not forget Umno’s deep state too – they are all very keen to set some free, to show who really runs Bolehland.
YellowCat1156: Hmmm. Isn't expediting the two court cases what the rakyat want? I can only think of two possible reasons for the news report, and the subsequent conspiracy label.
1. The word ‘expedite’ has been wrongly used, or
2. Expedite it to a conclusion no one wants to see.
Vijay47: The raw unsaid perception in everybody’s mind is that given the reality of local circumstances, “expedite” means, in easily understood terminology, “selesai” (completed).
That is, efforts are being made by certain politicians in cahoots with top legal officers to ensure that certain other politicians do not come to a sorry end in the courts.
I suppose it is understandable that Malaysiakini does not want to say much at the moment as nothing has been confirmed yet. And it surely does not relish the prospect of facing a libel suit.
Nevertheless, very damaging insinuations have been made in the original report by Malaysia Hot that even if proven false, places both the judiciary and the AGC in a terrible light.
The die has been cast, the line drawn, and the Malaysia Hot article can be either true or untrue. Either way, it grievously affects the judiciary’s and the AGC’s standing and somebody has to pay the piper.
The chief registrar of the Federal Court and also the AGC must lodge police reports for the police to begin investigations – Malaysia Hot may find itself on the burner, or some heads, many heads, from the two agencies must themselves face charges.
The weather forecast says we will be having an extremely scorching summer.
