The Malaysian Bar, Sabah Law Society and Advocates’ Association of Sarawak condemn any act of politicians seeking for an intervention by the Prime Minister in an ongoing matter before the judiciary at all material points.
“It is pertinent to note that there have been instances in the past where politicians have been admonished, some even charged for such actions to interfere as these actions are considered an abuse of power and a misfeasance of public duties,” said Malaysian Bar President Karen Cheah Yee Lynn, Sabah Law Society President Roger Chin and Advocates Association of Sarawak President Antonio Sim in a joint statement
Sabah Law Society President Roger Chin said it is time to set up a one-stop reference centre for all relevant documents, or copies, to centralise all pertinent information essential to understanding the Sulu Sultanate’s claim on Sabah and its monetary implications
