Meanwhile, something else is happening…

This was reported on Malaysia Today:

RPK’s habeas corpus hearing has been brought forward to Tuesday, 23 September 2008 at 9:00am at Jalan Duta Criminal Court 2. (That’s tomorrow! - Anil.) The judge hearing the application is Yang Arif Puan Suraya binti Othman.

It was originally supposed to be heard this Friday before a different judge.

This was a 19 September report by Bernama:

Court To Hear Raja Petra’s Habeas Corpus Application On Friday

KUALA LUMPUR, Sept 19 (Bernama) — The High Court here fixed next Friday to hear the habeas corpus application by blogger Raja Petra Raja Kamaruddin who is seeking his release from detention under the Internal Security Act (ISA).

The case will be heard before Justice Datuk Mohamed Apandi Ali.

His counsel, Ashok Kandiah, when contacted said he met Raja Petra at Bukit Aman and the blogger had affirmed his affidavit which would be filed at the High Court crminal registry Friday to facilitate his application.

Raja Petra filed a notice of motion through Messrs Mathews Hun Kandiah on Tuesday citing the grounds that his detention was unlawful and contravened the Federal Constitution.

Let’s keep praying for a favourable outcome.
