LINGAM VIDOE CLIP: COMMISION’S REPORT

NO WITCH-HUNT
The finding of the Lingam video clip inquiry do not form basis for
Prosecution until a thorough investigation is concluded, say lawyer

“Don’t make an issue, or use it as an avenue to make accusations and presumptions, for sake or creating a public media prosecution. This would not right”
Prime Minister Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi

“This kind of misbehaviour is so unprecendented that it not for release of video clip, it may never have come to light”
Commission of Inquiry report

“The commission report can be used by aggrieved parties as a springboard for an application to the Federal Court to review its own decision”
Former Court to Appeal judge Datuk Karam Chand Vohrah

“I don’t believe I did anything wrong but if they feel that I am guilty, I will accept any punishment”
Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad

THE REPORT REVEALS

The game plan was for Lingam, Tun Mohd Eusoff Chin, Tan Sri Vincent Tan, Datuk Seri Tengku Adnan Tengku m\Mansor and their contacts to make sure that their friends were in judiciary for the sake of then Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad.

Lingam’s claim that he had said many things about Tengku Adnan because he was drunk was too facile to be accepted.

Tan would have taken a very keen interest in the indentity of the judges who were trying his cases, one of which saw a defamation award being the highest in the Commonwealth.

The collective and cumulative actions of the main characters concerned seriously undermined and eroded the independence and integrity of judiciary.
