MCA calls for tribunal to investigate alleged judicial misconduct

PETALING JAYA: A tribunal to investigate alleged misconduct within the judiciary should be set up, says the MCA civil society movement bureau.

Its chief Ng Kian Nam said this in response to the Chief Justice Tan Sri Tengku Maimun Tuan Mat's statement that an internal probe into Court of Appeal judge Datuk Dr Hamid Sultan Abu Backer's affidavit – claiming the misconduct – was halted as the police were conducting an investigation into the matter.
