Salleh’s case is closed



PUTRAJAYA: The Cabinet has agreed that there is no case for a review of the 1988 judiciary crisis which led to the sacking of Tun Salleh Abas as Lord President.

Minister in the Prime Minister's Department Datuk Seri Nazri Aziz said the Cabinet has endorsed his statement that there was no case for a review.

“The Cabinet endorsed my statement. The case is closed,” he told The Star yesterday.

Salleh had outlined his five points for a review including his meeting with the then prime minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad who had asked him to step down because he was accused of being biased in the discharge of his judicial duties.

Nazri explained that Salleh's point that he was asked to leave by Dr Mahathir was a matter between the two of them.

“That is privy between them. The fact is there was no miscarriage of justice during the trial,” he said in reference to the tribunal set up to hear the misconduct charges against Salleh.

“I am more concerned if there is new evidence and facts that have emerged during the trial. I am looking at this objectively as a minister in charge of law.”

On Aug 8, 1988, the Government accused Salleh and five judges – Tan Sri Eusoffe Abdoolcader, Tan Sri Azmi Kamaruddin, Datuk George Seah, Tan Sri Wan Sulaiman Pawanteh and Tan Sri Wan Hamzah Mohamed Salleh – of misconduct.

The judges were suspended and later, Seah, Salleh and Wan Sulaiman were sacked after they were tried by tribunals.

Bar Council: Are we interested (in an independent judiciary)?
B. Suresh Ram

PETALING JAYA: Whether the 1988 judicial crisis should be reviewed boils down to whether the people and the government want the truth to come out, the Bar Council said today (Sept 27, 2006).

Its chairman, Yeo Yang Poh, who recently called for the review, said the revelation of "new facts" by former Lord President Tun Salleh Abas yesterday makes the move more important and pertinent now.

Salleh's airing of five reasons for a review was in response to a recent statement by Minister in the Prime Minister's Department Datuk Seri Mohd Nazri Abdul Aziz that a review can only be justified if "new and important facts" have arisen.

Nazri, in an immediate response to Salleh's "new facts", reportedly said the new information did not merit a review.

He reiterated that there must be a finality to such cases.

Said Yeo: "Are we interested, that is the question?"

He said with the new revelation by Salleh, the finality argument by Nazri did not hold water.

Yeo said there is thus a need for the government to seriously reconsider its position on the matter.

"The question is this: Does our society want the truth to come out? If so, then this exercise is all the more meaningful," he said.

Johor Baru MP Datuk Shahrir Abdul Samad, who is also parliamentary Public Accounts Committee chairman, said he would support the review of the 1988 crisis, which led to Salleh's sacking and that of two other colleagues, on the basis of new evidence.

"This issue is very close to me," he said.

Shahrir said the issue was one of the reasons why he stood as an independent candidate in a by-election he won in August 1988.

"It is very personal (the sacking) and it was for this reason I had refrained from commenting on it," he said.

He said that for the matter to be re-opened, the basis or the idea as to why it should be reopened must be there.

Shahrir said the best and the utmost one can do is learn from the crisis and not repeat it.

The 1988 crisis represents the darkest period in the country's judicial history and was criticised as the executive interfering in the judiciary.

" Maverick SM 提到...
The issue will prise open the fundamentals of jurisprudence, whether we follow positivism or natural law theory. It must be remembered that it was the Agong who removed the Lord President after the tribunal had investigated and adjudged and the law do not permit the questioning of the decisions of the King, rightly or wrongly.

In natural law theory and the rule of justice, Judicial Review would provide justice in the name of fairness and equality. But it will bring uncertainty to the rule of law and cause more uncertainties to the judicial system per se.

What should be the better course is for the Agong to decree a review as he is above the law. That would be possible.

歌曲的名字 You've Got A Friend
歌曲信息 Lyrics and Music: Carole King

歌词 When you're down and troubled
And you need some loving care
And nothing, nothing is going right
Close your eyes and think of me
And soon I will be there
To brighten up even your darkest night


You just call out my name
And you know wherever I am
I'll come running to see you again
Winter, spring, summer or fall
All you have to do is call
And I'll be there
You've got a friend

Any placing in a Blogsworld contest is just recognition of some chemistry of word and spirit; I'd rather that our combined Voices (like Yours and Mave and Mine) can help in small ways to obtain "delayed" justice for Tun Salleh and his brother Justices.

Malaysia has a long way to go when Nazri (minus the r?) took upon himself stacking obstacles one after another along the road to true Malaysian justice.

Maybe thiis is why many among the Y&A wished for a persona like V: Vendetta. The A-dults have let them down (And this includes all those who parents voted BN every GE in masochistic stylo:(
