He pointed out the responsibility of the plaintiffs to practise full disclosure when bringing forward the facts of the case, saying matters deemed negative to their case should also be presented in court. Mathews pointed out how the AG’s initial application had not included the fact that the statement was a response to a question, arguing such facts were imperative to the case and the court when judgement is made.“It was not a pre-prepared statement, and you could say off the cuff, just outside the courtroom,” he said.

“The public perception would depend on the eventual outcome of the case involving Datuk Seri Najib, whether positive or negative through him either being convicted or an acquittal.

Today’s proceedings were part of Shafee’s application to strike out the leave granted by the Mohd Firuz.
