IPOH: The Court of Appeal ruled that there were irregularities in the proceedings when a Sessions Court judge ordered lawyer M. Kulasegaran to be detained in a lock-up for contempt of court eight years ago.
In allowing an appeal by Kulasegaran to nullify the entire proceedings by the lower court, the Court of Appeal, which was presided by a bench of three judges, found that he should not have been sent to the lock-up when he had tendered his apology to purge the contempt order.
