COMMENT | Enabling Mahathir would lead to a big mess, the signs were there but we didn't pay attention.

In a blistering salvo, the DAP lawmaker rejects the proposal for Mahathir to return as PM.

UPDATED 4.50PM | PARLIAMENT | This after Takiyuddin says records did not show any evidence that this occurred.

PARLIAMENT | The lawmaker initially tried to play the recording in the Dewan Rakyat but was stopped by the deputy speaker.

PARLIAMENT | But lawyer Haniff Khatri Abdulla says Azhar has the right to request an adjournment of ex-PM's trial for such a purpose.

Ramkarpal Singh says Takiyuddin should have explained the case's decision to the people instead of resorting to name-calling.

The Amanah leader says he had experience dealing with Idrus Haron when the latter was a Court of Appeal judge.

P Gunasekaran was freed after the prosecution received instructions from the AGC to discontinue proceedings.

The Harapan Youth chief also names the 'assailants', which include DAP's Ramkarpal, Ramasamy and Ronnie Liu.

Ambiga also disagrees with the DAP MP's criticism of the PM, asking, 'What happened to collective responsibility?'

Ramkarpal warns Harapan not to risk further erosion of support and wants a clear timeframe for PM transition, among others.

The AG purportedly instructed a DPP to argue the section's constitutionality at the bail hearing of Sosma detainee B Subramaniam.

He also wants Thomas to ensure Najib's statement is recorded when an investigation is re-opened.

'There is no limitation period in criminal cases, one can be prosecuted for an offence despite a long time-lapse.'

The gathering was organised by a group of former Communist Party of Malaya members.

He says Bukit Gelugor Umno delegate Omar Faudzar's allegations are completely baseless.

This is the first time that the Special Select Committee chairman is tabling and wrapping-up a Bill, says minister.

UPDATED 1.40PM | The judge ruled that Section 13 of Sosma, which prohibited courts from granting bail in security offences cases, violates the separation of power.

This may give rise to corruption which is against Harapan's manifesto, says Ramkarpal. 

"We keep getting generic statements about more time being needed to conduct studies."

Twelve people have been detained by police since Oct 10 over purported links to LTTE. 

'I was made to understand that Tommy Thomas needs time to consider the representation,' says Ramkarpal.
