: The Singapore Court of Appeal yesterday granted Malaysian Pannir Selvam a/l Pranthaman’s application to stay his execution and enable him to challenge the clemency process.
In his decision, Menon said Pannir “ought to have reasonable opportunity to take advice on whether he can mount a successful challenge”. “To be fair to him, we could not expect him to be in a position to mount a fully developed argument. In the circumstances, we think that the execution should be stayed until further order.
