Malaysian Bar: MACC’s probe on Najib’s SRC trial judge undermines judiciary’s independence; don’t give in to 'keyboard warriors'

KUALA LUMPUR, April 25 — The Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission’s reported launching of an investigation against the trial judge — who heard former prime minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak’s case of RM42 million misappropriated from SRC International Sdn Bhd — would undermine the independence of the courts and is unconstitutional, the Malaysian Bar has said.

Cheah noted that it is not publicly known who had lodged the report to the MACC or when such a report was lodged, but said what is obvious is that there should be “no double standards” by the authorities in this matter. “There are mechanisms in place to deal with this issue, and pending the determination is such an issue, any attempts by irresponsible parties can be seen as to stab public confidence in the judiciary.

“The mere possibility of such an investigation by MACC, let alone an actual investigation, would undermine, and be perceived as undermining the judicial independence,” Cheah said. “We have seen such wild attempts to hurt lawyers, members of the public as well as the judiciary as an institution, and now specific judges.
