ps.: In the month of June 2010, there will be a talk by Assoc. Prof. Talat Mahmood Bin Abd Rashid from the Law Faculty of University Malaya broadly on:

(i)  the application of Sec 51 and 51A of the Criminal Procedure Code ;

(ii) Incompetence of counsel as a ground of appeal to set aside a conviction in a criminal matter. 

These 2 topics would naturally revolved around the Federal Court decisions in PP vs Dato’ Seri Anwar Ibrahim [2010] 4 CLJ 331 and Shamim Reza Abdul Samad vs PP [2009] 6 CLJ 93.

The appeal and leave application for appeal to Federal Court will be considered in another session.
