Yong Teck Lee is seeking a declaration that the government's decision to set up the RCI is unconstitutional. yongtecklee
KOTA KINABALU: Former Sabah chief minister Yong Teck Lee has initiated legal action to stop the government from setting up a royal commission of inquiry to investigate allegations of judicial interference and misconduct.
“I am advised that investigations into judicial misconduct can only be conducted by setting up a tribunal or a special committee of judges as provided for under Article 125 of the Federal Constitution. Yong said he was also seeking, among other reliefs, a declaration that the decision to set up the RCI was tainted with conflict of interest.
Besides that, he said Human Resources Minister M. Kula Segaran was also the former counsel in the M Indira Gandhi child conversion case, in which Hamid claimed he was reprimanded for his dissenting judgment.
