Ada terpandang video oleh Zaid Ibrahim tentang Pardon. Dia kata itu Prerogative of Mercy oleh Agong dan Raja2. High Prerogative of Mercy....or something like that lah. Itu betul. Tapi kalau nak kata process itu tidak ada procedure tak betul lah. Perlembagaan kita dan Akta Penjara telah tetapkan procedure nya. Agong & Raja2 juga perlu bertindak ikut Perlembagaan dan Undang2. Maka itu lah sebabnya digelar Raja Berperlembagaan. Dalam Perlembagaan ditetapkan mesti diadakan Pardons Board yang dipengerusikan oleh Tuanku sendiri. Antara lain Pardons Board itu akan bermesyuarat, pertimbangkan Petisyen yang dikemukakan, dapatkan nasihat dan pandangan ahli Pardons Board itu dan minta nasihat dan pandangan dari Peguam Negara. Bukan macam cerita filem purba. Bukan macam cerita Sultan Melaka ampunkan Hang Tuah untuk tujuan suruh bertikam dengan Hang Jebat. Bukan sebab Sultan Melaka menyesal tersalah hukum Hang Tuah. Bukan ampunkan Hang Tuah sebab Hang Jebat handal sangat dan hanya Hang Tuah sah...
The truth is often avoided.

ReplyDeleteYou guys will miss him should anything bad happened. What is Parliment without Karpal?
Nasib dia orang DAP maka dikatakan kemalangan, kalau orang UMNO laknat dah datang kot?
ReplyDeleteIt was such a disgrace to see the Kuantan Court's stairs were so narrow that the wheelchair could hardly be lifted up it.
ReplyDeleteJust happened someone as famous and obnoxious as him had to fall there eh?
Dear VersedAnggerik,
ReplyDeleteBeg to differ, I dont see that as a disgrace to the Kuantan Court's staircase, its a disgrace to Karpal really!
I have walked on worst court staircases in the early 80s. Reminds me of the Courts at Bukit Mahkamah, Jalan Duta and Jalan Raja...swirling staircases!
