PUTRAJAYA, Sept 14 — Judges, in all circumstances, must be faithful to the Federal Constitution and be resolute in upholding the rule of law.

“It infamously led to the upheaval of the nation’s judicial system and a shattering blow to the judiciary and the Constitution,” she said. She said Tun Salleh had said that judges ought to observe and respect the concept of separation of powers for judges should not encroach into the domain of the executive or the legislative branches of the government.

Seven months before his passing, the judiciary invited Tun Salleh to the Palace of Justice for a hi-tea to commemorate him as a special feature in the Malaysian Judicial Yearbook, she said. “Little did we know that that evening was our final parting with our last goodbye to Tun Salleh,” she added. Attorney General Tan Sri Idrus Harun and the Malaysian Bar president Karen Cheah, as well as Tun Salleh’s grandaughter Nuralissa Norrazak, also delivered their speeches in his honour.
