THE final piece of Dr Mahathir Mohamad’s jigsaw puzzle in making the rule of law supreme was put in place with the appointment of Abdul Hamid Bador as the new inspector-general of police.
The new chief justice, attorney-general and IGP can now move in tandem to ensure that their roles in the criminal justice system will run transparently and with full accountability. It will no longer be misused as lip service. The criminal justice system seems unable to provide the required remedy that will put matters to rest. That has been a telling failure of the justice system in the past.
Nevertheless, it would be prudent to comment less on those who were in the corridors of power before and now in court facing charges, as they are innocent until proven guilty in the strictest interpretation of the rule of law. This is the basis on how revolutions take place in the history of mankind. In our case, we are fortunate that we have had an evolution that transferred the reins of power peacefully. We may not get a second chance if we fail now.
