UPDATED 4.02PM Court of Appeal has overturned a rare RM2.5 million award to an ex-ISA detainee following an appeal from the government.
Abdul Malek, who is now parliamentary affairs coordinator for the opposition leader, said the decision would not weaken him and said, "The authorities would use all existing bodies the parliament, judiciary, legislature and the police to maintain ISA. We need to mobilise NGOs, opposition parties and the BN component parties which are opposed to the Act to pressure the government to repeal the Act."
Abdul Malek was disappointed with today's decision and described it as worrying as the assaults did take place but the appellate court simply rejected the High Court findings.
