Malaysian Bar: Lawyer’s purported suggestion that court decisions can be influenced is disgraceful, unethical, misconduct

KUALA LUMPUR, June 19 — The Malaysian Bar today did not mince its words about a lawyer’s purported action of suggesting that court decisions can be influenced, saying that this would be a misconduct if the lawyer was proven to actually have made such suggestions.

Malaysian Bar president AG Kalidas cited a June 15 news report by portal Free Malaysia Today, where the Chief Justice’s Office was reported to have lodged a police report on June 7 against a senior lawyer for allegedly bringing the judiciary into disrepute.

Free Malaysia Today had cited sources in saying that the lawyer had allegedly sent a few text messages to a client in relation to two cases pending in court.
Saying that the Malaysian Bar was deeply troubled by such news, Kalidas said such “purported conduct as reported is disgraceful and unbecoming of a member of the legal community”.
