PETALING JAYA: Exempting a minister from Covid-19 preventive measures without justification is arbitrary and creates a dangerous precedent, says Malaysian Bar president Salim Bashir.
"If Plantation Industries and Commodities Minister Datuk Dr Mohd Khairuddin Aman Razali (pic) is, in fact, exempted from a quarantine order, the authorities must be able to demonstrate what this exemption is, the absence of which would create a dangerous precedent that is arbitrary in nature," he said in a statement on Thursday (Oct 22)
