Covid-19: DPP tests positive, all DPPs must now undergo home quarantine


KUALA LUMPUR: A deputy public prosecutor (DPP) from the Attorney General’s Chambers is down with Covid-19, causing almost all of the deputy public prosecutors from the Appellate and Trial division to undergo a 10-day quarantine beginning May 3.

In a domino effect, this has rendered the DPPs – who exclusively handle the criminal appeals at the Court of Appeal and the Federal Court - to be unable to appear before the courts for appeal cases between May 3 and May 13.
