If passed, the motion will allow the Bar to establish an independent panel to probe the facts and circumstances related to the preparation and execution of the SD.
PETALING JAYA: The Malaysian Bar is to discuss the possibility of establishing an independent investigation committee to probe private investigator P Balasubramaniam’s second statutory declaration (SD) this Saturday.
The motion, tabled by Wan Hidayati Nadirah Wan Ahmad Nasir and seconded by 12 other lawyers, will be debated at the Bar’s 67th AGM at the Renaissance Hotel, Kuala Lumpur.
Last year, carpet trader Deepak Jaikishen revealed that he was one of the key persons involved in getting Balasubramaniam to retract his first SD in July 1, 2008.
The first SD implicated Prime Minister Najib Tun Razak and his wife Rosmah Mansor in the death of Mongolian Altantuya Shaariibuu. However, he omitted the duo’s involvement in the second SD.
Deepak also alleged that a “Tan Sri” lawyer was involved in preparing Bala’s second SD.
Later, former MACC advisory panel member Robert Phang alleged that the “Tan Sri” lawyer was Cecil Abraham, who currently sits in the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) panel.
If the motion is passed on Saturday, the committee would be allowed to enquire into the facts and circumstances relating to the preparation and execution of the SD by Bala.
Among other issues that will be discussed at the AGM are the death penalty and the e-filing system practised in courts.
