IPOH: The judiciary must not be used as a political tool, says Datuk Seri Saarani Mohamad.

Following the Kuala Lumpur High Court's decision to grant Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi a discharge not amounting to an acquittal (DNAA), the Perak Umno liaison chairman said the judiciary institution had always been the backbone of a just and orderly system and it needed to be defended from being used as a political tool.
