Karpal said those words to the CJ.
Malaysiakini reported:
Veteran lawyer and DAP supremo Karpal Singh has challenged Chief Justice Zaki Azmi to sue him for defamation if his statements purporting Zaki to be guilty of corruption and of lying on the matter have been wrong. “I dare him to sue me. Either he's right or I am right. One of us is not,” Karpal said today after submitting a letter addressed to Yang Dipertuan Agong Mizan Zainal Abidin on the issue of Zaki's appointment. While this is not the first time that Karpal has issued such an ultimatum to the CJ, he said today that he is ready to be fined and/or imprisoned and stripped of his status as member of parliament and barred from standing in the next general election if found guilty of libel.
My hat off to Karpal. He surely knows his stuff and waits to be proven right or wrong in the law.
