The former law minister claims a ‘massive demonstration’ would have happened if Ahmad Zahid Hamidi’s DNAA had happened under a BN government.
Zaid Ibrahim said ‘noble arguments’ put forward in the trial of Najib Razak about how the legal process must not be abused, among others, were nowhere to be heard in the case of Ahmad Zahid Hamidi.
Referring to Zahid as a “VVVIP”, the former law minister ostensibly took aim at the deputy prime minister’s discharge not amounting to an acquittal in a lengthy rant on Twitter, comparing it to the SRC International trial of Najib Razak last year. “The narratives were that the justice system would not allow last-minute changes, the process must not be abused, the taxpayers’ money must not be wasted, and that the trial must go on schedule, even without counsel,” he said.
“I am sure if this incident had taken place under the BN leadership, there would have been a massive demonstration. Many quarters will ask where the rule of law is and whether the prime minister should resign.
