Shocking! Judge claims judiciary involved in swindling public funds
In a shocking allegation, Court of Appeal Judge Hamid Sultan Abu Backer has claimed that certain members of the judiciary have been aiding private parties to defraud public funds.
He mentioned this in an affidavit filed today supporting lawyer Sangeet Kaur Deo's application to declare that the chief justice failed to defend the integrity and credibility of the judiciary over two alleged incidences of judicial interference.
Hamid claimed the act of defrauding was done through nominees of politicians creating contracts with the government.
Once the government reneges on the contract, he alleged, the private parties would take the government to court in order to claim compensation.
"I will give an example. The government will enter into a contract with a political nominee with no intention of honouring it.
"Subsequently, the government will terminate the contract and the nominee will sue the government for breach of contract.
"The government may record a consent judgment accepting liability and agreeing to assess damages.
"This modus operandi was going on directly to deprive the exchequer by false claims," he claimed.
Hamid, who is still a sitting judge, repeatedly stressed the need for a Royal Commission of Inquiry (RCI) to look into this matter...
Wow so much of shit in the Malaysian judiciary system. Definitely we need to have a RCI to determine the exact extend of corrupt judges in all level in the judiciary of this country.
Have we hit rock bottom? No. This is only what has come to the surface thanks to a whistleblowing judge with a fully functioning conscience and a couple of reaaally big ones. While the temptation to dive straight into the Who, What and When is irresistible, we must also find time to ask “where did this all start?” I’ll tell you. It started soon after Mahathir’s wanton rape of the judiciary when judicial stalwarts and living legends then, like the late Eussofe Abdoolcader were purged to make way for compliant and eminently crooked ones, characteristically language-challenged and morally deficient but, like the Cantabrigian wannabe, politically strong. We had an early indication of the utter rot and the rotters in robes with the ousting of Fairuz and his fixer, Lingam korek3. Was it enough to send tremors through the exposed judiciary forcing it into soul-searching and penitence. Naah. These fellows are made of sterner stuff, buttressed as they were by private deals and politicians in their pockets, as the Don Corleone was said to have “like so many nickels and dimes”. And finally does anyone think there’ll be the usual Friday demo by the faithful after prayers tomorrow howling against the extent of the rot within? Naah.
not suprised. wt najis in the helm, any shit can happen. royal enquiry pls
