THE reasons given by Attorney-General Tommy Thomas in his media release dated May 28 for the revocation of the service of lawyer Syazlin Mansor from representing the Housing and Local Government Ministry and the Fire and Rescue Department, in the Inquest into the death of firefighter Muhammad Adib Mohd Kassim, raise more doubts and questions than answers.
Paragraph B of Enclosure A states that “there are no ‘parties’ to an inquest;” while paragraph E stresses the “inquisitorial” nature of an Inquest, and not adversarial. In fact, our Court of Appeal in the case of Teoh Meng Kee v Public Prosecutor [2014] 5 MLJ, summed up the role of those involved in the proceeding as merely to assist the Coroner Court in a fact-finding mission, and nothing else.
Those who follow the proceedings of the Inquest would notice that Syazlin represented the ministry and the Fire and Rescue Department well, as reflected by the statement issued by the political secretary to the Housing Minister dated May 28, which expressed the Ministry’s gratitude to her excellent service that was rendered pro bono.
