Passing of a great judicial luminary


Well respected: A combo picture of the late Sultan Azlan Shah during his days as the Lord President.

IN his lifetime, Sultan Azlan Muhi­bbuddin Shah was Malaysia’s ninth Yang di-Pertuan Agong, the Sultan of Perak for three decades and the head of the country’s judiciary.

In all these positions, he left an indelible mark. But for many, he will be best remembered as the Chief Justice of the High Court of Malaya and later, the Lord President (now known as the Chief Justice).
