Justices in Focus

Yesterday, Chief Justice Tun Md Raus Sharif and Court of Appeal president Tan Sri Zulkefli Makinudin tendered their resignations.

Other critics said it went against the mandatory retirement limits but also unfairly suggested that there weren’t sufficient men and women of quality to fill those positions.
