The prime minister said his predecessor does not share that status since he is currently under investigation for alleged wrongdoings.
“He is under investigation. So he doesn’t represent the past prime ministers.
“But if he is found innocent, he will get the same treatment as other prime ministers,” he said.
[...]
Earlier, Najib had on his Facebook page said all his security escorts had been officially revoked except for an aide-de-camp.
I was under the impression that under the so-called democratic laws that the Pakatan government boasts it so cherishes, a man is deemed to be innocent until proven guilty.
But it seems Mahathir believes Najib is GUILTY UNTIL PROVEN OTHERWISE, hence Mahathir said if he is found innocent, he will get the same treatment as other prime ministers - tsk tsk tsk.
How about Guan Eng? Is he GUILTY UNTIL PROVEN OTHERWISE? Why is Guan Eng accorded protection services when he is still facing a charge?
Yes, his dad has asked the AG to resign, probably to ensure the charges are dead too, but until those charges have been dealt with properly, Guan Eng is like Najib, with charges hanging over their heads, but innocent until proven guilty
How about Mahathir himself who was accorded protection services etc even when he was no longer a PM and especially when he was facing a RCI on the FOREX losses? Wasn't he then in the same shoes as Najib is now?
Mahathir has shown his wicked meanness in extracting retribution every which way against his current bete noire but alas, in such a very mean and unlawful way. It spells rottenness for our judicial due process under the current Mahathir regime, just as it had spelled rottenness for our judicial due process under the previous Mahathir regime (1981 - 2003).
Completely unhinged post.
ReplyDeleteWhat has the removal of police escort privileges got to do with the sanctity of the judicial process ?
In case Ktemoc thinks we all have lousy memories , this is the highly hostile post Ktemoc wrote on an equivalent situation.
What's the difference ?

He's not yet guilty, so why treat him like a criminal?
Deletetis rule only apply to pm, n only a current or former pm know how it works, u foreigner know nothing so better talk something u know.
ReplyDeleteMM Online - Under probe Najib doesn’t count as past PM, Dr M says of revoked security.
ReplyDeleteThat statement clearly shows TDM knows Najib is already deadmeat with the criminal charges against him and it's a matter of days now before Najib is put under arrest.
He has already neutralised Najib's thugs and now the police security ring around him to avoid sentimental servants who may prevent such an arrest.
I don't know what Kaytee is babbling about mixing up so many unrelevant issues to justify what?
Take a break otherwise the Mindbblock may cause irreparable damage to logical thinking.
That irreparable damage has already happened.
DeleteAll these past postings have shown truncated irrelevancy, pure anger & unbroken grandmother's recording.
Tsk… tsk… sigh
"You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law. You have the right to have an attorney."
ReplyDeleteThis specific statement is a US law arrest enforcement procedure, but actually the same principles apply under common law in Malaysia.
Coming soon for Najib....
Don't frighten Ktemoc lah...already he is kencing-ing in his pants...we don't want him to go stark raving mad. It is most unfortunate enough we get to witness lately how hysterical he was...accosting LKS with pure malice and then veering off to attack Dr M on even the smallest of thing...sudah naik gila lah
Delete"Coming soon for Najib...."
DeleteGorblimey: I am confused? Because before you said Abdul Ghani Patail's service as AG was terminated on the eve when he was about to charge Najib. Where is that charge? Can't you just used that aforesaid charge to read "You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law. You have the right to have an attorney," to Najib today?
'God only knows' when 1MDB special committee can deliver findings. ~ Abu Talib on Wednesday 30 May 2018.
Now, can we consider that aforesaid charge as a hearsay or a fitnah which was indeed used against Najib to bring down his government in GE14?
Honestly, I would very much like to subscribe to your belief on Najib's corruption vis-a-vis with 1MDB. I would express my deepest gratitude if you could enlighten me, Mr Monsterball, Sir.
[KUALA LUMPUR: Former Attorney-General Tan Sri Abu Talib Othman says 'God knows how long' it will be before the 1MDB special committee can deliver its findings given the complexity of the case.
He added that the committee merely played a coordinating role to prevent overlapping investigations.
When asked if they could conclude the work within 100 days, he said it depended on the complexity of the case. ]
