Judge Nazlan lodges police report over allegation of RM1mil in bank

[superadmin]

An attempt to scandalise the judge?

Anon25: Fugitive blogger Raja Petra Kamaruddin (RPK) who made that scandalous allegation against Court of Appeal judge Mohd Nazlan Mohd Ghazali is known as a hired scoundrel.

But is it not scandalous also for MACC chief commissioner Azam Baki to announce that he is investigating the judge? Because as PKR president Anwar Ibrahim has pointed out, he is violating the principle of separation of powers in so doing.

Azam is obviously trying to scandalise the good judge. Without this move, the allegations from abroad would not have mattered.

Constitutional Supremacy: Anwar is right. The separation of powers must be respected. The judiciary has its check and balance over allegations made. It can hold its own enquiry if there is any foundation to the allegations.

Raja Petra is a mercenary and discredited blogger. Sarawak Report has exposed his dealings where he knowingly makes false allegations against political rivals of those whom he receives funds from.

Thus, MACC should not have opened a file as this matter should be dealt with internally by the judiciary itself.

MACC’s actions are lending credence to possible false allegations. Moreover, the evidence against Najib is so overwhelming that no judge could have acquitted him.
