APRIL 7 — We, the undersigned wish to express our support for the statement issued by the President of the Malaysian Bar on April 4th, 2023 in relation to the so-called “leaked” document from the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission and the attacks against the Malaysian Judiciary and judges thereof.
It is noted in this regard that the sole dissenting or minority decision in the review application did not offer any opinion on the issue of the alleged conflict of interest. Thus, the allegation of conflict of interest against Justice Nazlan has been decided with finality. The principle of “res judicata” applies and the matter cannot be reopened. Certainly, it cannot be reopened as a collateral attack in the media or by any other means.
Moreover, it is astounding that such a sensitive and confidential letter could have found its way into the public domain and raises serious questions about the confidentiality of MACC processes, which warrant immediate investigation. All of this must stop as it does not serve the rule of law or the country. Those who have been found to have committed offences must pay for it. That is the Malaysian criminal justice system. There should be no preferred class of people in this country who are permitted to tear down an institution to escape the law.
