The Bar Council has filed an appeal over Kuala Lumpur High Court's decision last month to dismiss its appeal against a disciplinary board’s decision to clear senior lawyer Cecil Abraham of professional misconduct.
This will take the matter for hearing before the Court of Appeal.
The case was in relation to the lawyer’s supposed role in drafting the second statutory declaration of the late private investigator P Balasubramaniam, pertaining to the Altantuya Shaariibuu murder case.
