Public criticism of high-profile cases has gone overboard, says top judge

PUTRAJAYA: Chief Justice Tun Tengku Maimun Tuan Mat has rebuked criticism over high-profile cases, saying that the recent public disapproval had "gone overboard".

She noted that of late, there had been high profile cases involving people of public interest at the courts and it was common for judges to receive criticisms from those who were disappointed with court decisions.
