UPDATED 4PM The Court of Appeal today overturned a High Court ruling restricting MACC's interrogation sessions to office hours.
The decision was made by Court of Appeal judges Hasan Lah, Ahmad Maarop and Syed Ahmad Helmy Syed Ahmad after hearing submissions from senior federal counsel Amarjeet Singh for the MACC, and counsel Karpal Singh for Kajang municipal councillor Tan Boon Wah.
Karpal submitted that Lock Up Rules state that suspects must be allowed rest between 6.30pm to 6.30am and they should remain in their cells. Thus, the same rule should be applied to witnesses. Also, Karpal said the court should adopt the literal meaning of the term day-to-day to mean within office hours as was agreed by the High Court as the the adverb day-to-day could never mean round the clock investigations or interrogations.
What a shame! The three stooges don't even know the difference between 'day-to-day' and 'round the clock'. A simple search in The Free Dictionary reveals the answers:
'day-to-day' means occurring on a routine or daily basis and 'round the clock' means without stopping.
