Shameful Judiciary

A single-judge Court of Appeal  to preside over the stay of execution on the KL High Court ruling that declared Nizar as the Perak rightful MB? Are you kidding any Malaysian with 'sound' mind? Can such a constitutional legal issue with severe political and social gravity be settled by a legal brain, not to mention the single-judge's intelligence at the first place? Even a revived Lord Denning who has been widely recognized as one of the most brilliant Law Lords in common law history can never sit as a single judge in Court of Appeal!!! Why? Because justice must be seen to be done, not just merely be done! Anything may screw up in the hands of an absolute power or authority. 

No need to mention, the so-called 'Court of Appeal' has allowed the stay of execution on KL High Court ruling. The worst thing was that, the sole presiding judge in the Court of Appeal was one of the most junior among the judges in the appellate court. Again, a big joke. And the ruling was of course, in favour of the BN. Malaysians see this, Pak Cik BN. You gonna lose the entire country if you keep on interrupting the function of Judiciary Machine. Shame!

A must-see article closely linked to this matter can be read on http://art-harun.blogspot.com/2009/05/what-are-you-staying.html
Another masterstroke by the Malaysian legal eagle which crystallizes the essence of the stay of execution in this instance. A DECLARATION can never be stayed. There is a judicial precedent that emcompasses this principle. Good job, Art-Harun. Nizar, buck up.
