Practice Areas

Permohonan untuk dilepaskan dengan jaminan sementara menunggu perbicaraan -atas alasan sakit dan uzur– pemohon dalam tahanan reman-kesalahan di bawah Akta Kesalahan Keselamatan (Langkah-Langkah Pencegahan Khas) 2012 (SOSMA) 1 The application seeks to invalidate sections 4(5), 13, 14, 15, 16, 18A, 20 and/or 30 contravening Articles 8, 121(1) and/or 149 Although sections 4(5), 13, 14 to 16, 18A and 20 modify traditional procedural or evidentiary rules, they do not displace the core adjudicatory function of the Judiciary. Under these provisions, the Court retains judicial oversight in that they retain the inherent power to assess the credibility, weight, and relevance of evidence. The Judiciary remains the final arbiter of fact. As these measures allow the detenu a chance to challenge the prosecution’s case, they remain consistent with the right to a fair trial under Article 5 and are shielded by the special legislative powers granted under Article 149. Sections 4(5), 13, 14 to 16, 18A and 20 also satisfy the satisfy the principle of proportionality and have a rational nexus with the objective of SOSMA. 1 This Court holds that mandatory remand requirement in section 30 violates the sanctity of judicial powers vested in the Judiciary and ignores the role of Judges as arbiters. 1 While the Legislature maintains the authority to enact special measures for security offences under Article 149, those laws cannot completely extinguish the core adjudicatory functions of the Judiciary. Therefore, Section 30 is struck down as an impermissible abrogation of judicial power under Article 121(1). 1
