The laughable threat of a gag order on the Royal Addendum, which the judge has directed the government to formally apply for by Monday, 20 January, has sparked widespread debate. Memes and sarcastic posts have flooded social media, with some viewing it as a clarification of the royal prerogative, while others see it as a potential threat to judicial independence.
BN (Barisan Nasional) and PH (Pakatan Harapan) remain strange bedfellows, the latter involved in Trial by Media which put former Prime Minister Najib Tun Razak in jail after Debate with Anwar Ibrahim!
Four judges, in the face of the DNA granted by their Panel Head, may have 'erroneously' deemed that it was fatal flaw in law, indeed not safe, under the circumstances. The Najib defence team argued Judicial Review in oral submission for three days as Appeal purportedly for 2nd bite at the cherry.
There's real risk that former Attorney General Tommy Thomas would be dragged to justice if abuse of power, under Article 145, can be proven in the RM27m SRC case, either before or after Najib Razak was granted DNAA, if not DNA!
Law practice and court room skills ultimately come from the power of language, wide reading, ability to think, and ability to fathom the judge's thinking on the rule of law!
Sabah and Sarawak, having suffered internal colonisation since 1963, support Full Pardon for former Prime Minister Najib Tun Razak, with or without restoration of the rule of law!

The Najib income tax case in the court of law, initiated by Mahathir ventilating ignorance, was also tainted by procedural unfairness and non-compliance with the Specific Relief Act 1950, among others!
UN Review, silent on 'arbitrary detention' for diplomatic reasons, finds no closure on Najib's RM42m SRC International case!
