Anwar: Let the four answer to allegations on Rome Statute


KUALA LUMPUR: Let the four academics who advised the Conference of Rulers and convinced them to reject the Rome Statute answer to any allegations, says Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim.

“Let our academics answer, okay?” said the Port Dickson MP and PM-in-waiting, in the wake of the Malaysian government’s decision not to ratify the international treaty that seeks to prosecute those guilty of genocide, war crimes, crimes against humanity, and crimes of aggression.
