You dont need to be a rocket scientist to know that the Attorney- General was prompted to file an appeal against Annuar's acquital in the High Court. In the case of Razak Baginda where Najib's involvement was obvious, the A-G did not even bother to file an appeal when Razak's defence was not called..The decision of the A-G in both cases was overwhelmingly biased.What is the rationale for not appealing in Razak's case when the circumstantial evidence was fingered at Razak for being involved.?Then in Annuar's case Judge Zabidin acquitted Annuar after his defence was called and yet the A-G deemed fit to appeal. Surely the grounds for appeal in Razak Baginda's case was more stronger and yet the A-G refused to appeal.
The above two decisions clearly showed that Malaysian judiciary and the Attorney-General department are clearly under the thumb of the executive.
An appeal by the A-G chambers is a sign for the judiciary to ensure that Annuar will fail when his appeal is heard at the court of Appeal.That precisely happened to Karpal singh's sedition case when he was acquitted in the High court but was overturned by the Court of appeal when the A-G appealed the High Court favourable verdict in the Karpal Singh's sedition case.
