Police must effect High Court order, declares Bar


PETALING JAYA: The police are duty bound to uphold secular laws and give effect to the orders granted by the secular judiciary, said Malaysian Bar president Christopher Leong.

“The Muslim convert father must obey the order of the High Court and the police are duty bound to assist the non-Muslim mother,” he said in response to the police stand that they cannot investigate a man who allegedly took his six-year-son from his ex-wife’s house despite a High Court order granting her custody of their two children.
