KUALA LUMPUR: Following the death of Datuk Seri Gopal Sri Ram, former attorney general Tan Sri Tommy Thomas (pic) will appoint a new lead counsel for his ongoing suit against a special task force and the government over the investigation into the contents of his memoir.

Thomas filed the originating summons on Oct 27 last year, seeking a declaration that the purported report on the investigation is an illegal document and a violation of the law.
