Anwars lawyer takes issue with judges inconsistency in granting bail

The recent decision by High Court judge S Augustine Paul to grant bail to murder accused lawyer Balwant Singh has raised the question why jailed ex-deputy premier Anwar Ibrahim's repeated applications for bail were denied, said Anwar's lawyer Sankara Nair.

Sankara said while he welcomed Paul's decision to allow Balwant to be released on a RM500,000 bail, he questioned why the same principle was not applied to Anwar.
