The man who was mentioned by VK Lingam in the video-clip was there at the MARCH FOR JUSTICE today.

Wee is a former DAP member who was the Member of Parliament for Bukit Bintang. In 1995, then High Court judge and current Chief Justice Ahmad Fairuz Sheikh Abdul Halim made a controversial decision sitting as an Election Judge, and dismissed Wee as MP and declared the BN candidate as the new MP instead of calling for fresh election.

In the Lingam Tape, this conversation from VK Lingam was heard:

No don’t worry, Datuk, I know how much you suffer for Tun Eusoff Chin. And Tun said Datuk Ahmad Fairuz 110% loyalty. We want to make sure our friends are there for the sake of the PM and the sake of the country.

Not for our own interest, not for our own interest. We want to make sure the country come first. Well, you suffered so well, so much you have done. For the election, Wee Choo Keong, everything. How much, no body would have done all these.

Yes, you know. Good lah. Don’t worry. I am constantly working on this.

Ahmad Fairuz is now Malaysia's Top Judge safeguarded at the Palace of Justice.

I am sick to my stomach after watching the video.

palace of Justice - istana keadilan. No wonder there is no malay version of this place. after being humiliated by our justice system, anwar has the last laugh. He won the sodomy appeal in his hq.

hey jeff, can you please elaborate more on that case (or point me to sites/sources so i can read more about it). It might even worth a post of its own just to bring the nostalgic memory back (although some will not like that). I was still sucking my thumbs and playing in the padi field back in 1995.

I want to find out on what ground did Mr Wee get dismissed if he was the legit winner of the election.

INTERNET does not operate in a legal vacuum.
