I fully support the call by the Bar Council to get to the bottom of the shocking disclosures involving the previous prime minister.

A royal commission of inquiry should be set up to investigate the revelations by Sibu High Court Judge HC Ian Chin on ‘threats from the then prime minister’.

The recommendations by the royal commission set up to investigate the Lingam tape scandal have yet to be implemented by the government but we are faced with yet more revelations that are of an utmost disgust to the legal fraternity.

What has become of this man called Mahathir? Not satisfied with what he had done to the six judges, there was then the Lingam tape scandal and now followed by another scandal as revealed by the Sibu judge.

We may now also question the judgements delivered during high-profile cases involving Anwar Ibahim. Can we not ask if the judgements were not concocted for the satisfaction of Mahathir to ‘kill off’ Anwar politically?

A royal commission of inquiry, if convened, should not only concentrate on the revelations by Chin but on all judgements delivered for high-profile cases involving the government or personalities close to the government during Mahathir's tenure of office.

With these revelations by Chin, it would seem that this man Mahathir couldn't care two hoots for the principle of the independence of the judiciary.

If he could ‘force’ the judges to deliver judgements in according to his whim and fancy, is it not too far off the mark to expect that he would interfere in the judgements besides investigations by the police and the Attorney-General’s Chambers?

Anwar had been victimised, jailed for six years for offences he did not commit. This man by the name of Mahathir should be should be investigated for this with no stone left unturned. Get this man!
