KUALA LUMPUR: The Malaysian Bar has passed a no-confidence vote against Attorney General Tan Sri Idrus Harun for his"abject failure" to defend the judiciary from attacks including one involving Justice Mohd Nazlan Mohd Ghazali.
Justice Mohd Nazlan was the trial judge who convicted and sentenced Najib in the RM42mil SRC International Sdn Bhd case and there were allegations that he was in a conflict of interest for presiding over the case due to his previous role in Maybank. The lawyers also said they had mandated the Bar Council to give notice to the attorney general to bring contempt proceedings against those"responsible for attacks on the judiciary."
Last month law and institutional reform minister Datuk Seri Azalina Othman Said the MACC's probe on Mohd Nazlan concluded he had violated the Judges’ Code of Ethics and had a conflict of interest when presiding over the SRC International case.Mohd Nazlan convicted Najib in July 2020 on charges of abuse of power, money laundering and criminal breach of trust over RM42mil in funds belonging to SRC International.
