The National Patriots Association wants the four academics who advised the rulers to reject the Rome Statute on the International Criminal Court to explain themselves.
He was commenting on criticisms levelled at the four academics over an executive summary they had written on the Rome Statute. The 10-page summary, allegedly advising the rulers to reject the statute, was leaked by student activists on April 7. Ahmad Ghazali told a press conference today that many viewed the content and quality of the summary submitted to the rulers to be flawed and skewed and “they raised a lot of questions, both in terms of their motives and their credibility as academics”.
Ahmad Ghazali said the summary had led to uneasiness among the people, thus forcing the government to withdraw from the agreement for fear of a purported coup d’etat.
