Did he say he bribed ? Part 2


Is the truth all lies ?
Well it appears that the story about the new CJ's admission in the NST report recently that he had bribed court staff is not going away. This is despite the fact that the new CJ has made clarifications that he had never bribed anyone.It seems that the lawyer cum MP Karpal Singh had lodged a police report against the new CJ. The said MP is also believed to have said that there is a recording of the interview that the new CJ gave to the NST. He claims that the CJ was reported correctly to have said that he had bribed court staff in the past. He further says that the CJ had lied when he made his clarifications later. As a matter of fact the said MP has given a 7 day ultimatum for the new CJ to quit being the CJ for the lies! He says that a judge that is incapable of telling the truth cannot remain as a judge. You know what.... I am with Karpal on this matter. There are many issues in the past that I may have not have agreed with Karpal but this is certainly not one of them. I also say that if the CJ had indeed lied then he has no business being a judge. Plain and simple. We expect a higher level of integrity and honesty from the man that occupies the highest judicial office in the land. If it is proven that the CJ had lied then he can no longer occupy that high office.
Now that there is a police report filed against the CJ.... question is......will the police siasat ? Will it take more than 1 year to habis siasat ? Another question to the UMNO chaps is this : You chaps so quick to lodge a police report against the Penang Govt for the "Kings of tennis" fiasco but why in the new CJ matter......all is very silent ? What....cat got your tongue is it ? Tennis game you people make report but about the new CJ you people buat tak tau! Which is more important ?
Only happens in Malaysia I guess!
