High Court judge Collin Lawrence Sequerah rules that the provision under Sosma which denies bail for those charged with terror-related offences is constitutional. FMTNews DAP LTTE

The High Court in Kuala Lumpur has dismissed the bail application by Melaka DAP councillor V Suresh Kumar, charged with supporting LTTE.

High Court judge Collin Lawrence Sequerah ruled that the provision under the Security Offences Act, or Sosma, which denies bail for those charged with terrorism-related offences, is constitutional. “I find that the provision in Section 13 of Sosma in so far as it relates to the absolute prohibition of bail for accused person charged for offences related to terrorism is constitutional. Therefore, the application is dismissed,” he said, referring to another High Court decision.

“This is because the foundation or edifice for the exercise of that power is not there. So there is no question of removing judicial power in the first place,” he said.
