Report: Lawyer instructed to withdraw from Adib’s inquest by AG
The revoking of Syazlin’s appointment for the inquest into fireman Muhammad Adib Mohd Kassim’s death was allegedly done by way of a letter from Attorney General Tommy Thomas. — Picture by Miera Zulyana
Shahrom courted controversy when he was the only witness who told the inquest that Adib sustained injuries after he was pulled out of an Emergency Medical Rescue Services vehicle and assaulted. He said Syazlin was then appointed at the initial stages to ensure all information surrounding Muhammad Adib’s death was unearthed during the inquest, with no objections raised at the get-go over her representation.
Also sharing their disappointment over Syazlin’s withdrawal was Parti Bumiputra Perkasa Malaysia Youth chief Nasrul Ali Hassan Abdul Latif, who through a statement today said her revoking was an incorrect and suspicious move especially considering the inquest is reaching its conclusion.
