KUALA LUMPUR: “Malaysia especially the legal profession has lost one of its finest members,” says former Chief Justice Tun Richard Malanjum and a very close friend of Datuk Seri Gopal Sri Ram as a throng of legal eagles and others bade farewell to the latter who died on Sunday.
“He took it as his life obligation to assist the needy. He might have earned a fair bit of fees from his legal practice but a good portion of it went to charity. May his soul rest in peace,” said Malanjum in a text message from New York where he is based. The former top judge was appointed as an ombudsman to the United Nations Security Council last year until 2024.
