Pejuang lawyer calls out Umno's top leaders for 'attacking judiciary'
- 2 years ago
Top Umno leaders have been accused of launching coordinated attacks on the judiciary following legal setbacks faced by former Umno president Najib Abdul Razak.
Pejuang legal counsel Muhammad Rafique Rashid Ali said that when the Federal Court rejected Najib's bid to introduce "new evidence" on Tuesday, Umno leaders were quiet.
"However, last night, the Umno propaganda started. Top Umno leaders - their president, deputy president and youth chief - issued statements which can be construed as questioning the decisions of the Federal Court," said Rafique in a statement today.
