PETALING JAYA: Former presidents of the Malaysian Bar have come out strongly against alleged attacks on the judiciary in relation to leaked documents involving the probe into judge Datuk Mohd Nazlan Ghazali.

A group of fourteen past Bar presidents, in a statement Friday , said the continuing intimidation of the judiciary by irresponsible actors in connection with the SRC case is a danger to the rule of law.

"Further the purported conflict of interest of Justice Nazlan Ghazali was canvassed and and argued by the lawyers for Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak before two separate panels of the Federal Court. "This constitutes a serious transgression by MACC of their authority and jurisdiction under the governing Act, which are not within its purview nor competence, as it falls within the purview of the Judiciary.
