妨碍司法公正 (Preverting The Course of Justice)

09/01/2011 Afternoon 3:55pm (Cloudy Day)

Just before the lunch, suddenly come out from my mind, that is the famous quote in the Hong Kong Drama "妨碍司法公正", under curiosity I intend to find the definition of this words, finally I got it, as it take me about half an hour to get the words in English that is "Preverting The Course of Justice".

But I am not sure my home country Malaysia did the Attonery-General charge any persons before under this common law offence "Preverting The Course of Justice". As this is the important issue either for criminal case nor in civil suit. Some of the people will find all sorts of way to prevent themself from any charge.

Recently that is the Teoh Beng Hock case which may affect the confidence of justice from the international people toward Malaysia. As the coroner rule out homicide nor suicide, so who responsible for the death of the deceased? Really sad to know that. MACC such as reputable government agency it is not safe to go to their office to co-operate for investigation, as under their "care" someone may either "homicide nor suicide". Who can actually tell us the truth of the death?

Get back to the Preveting The Course of Justice, here the wikipedia link:
