Malaysian Court Of Appeal And Anwar Ibrahim (EDM1151)

Malaysian Court Of Appeal And Anwar Ibrahim

EDM number 1151 in 2003-04, proposed by Jeremy Corbyn on 10/05/2004.

That this House registers its concern that the Malaysian Court of Appeal is about to announce its decision in the case of Anwar Ibrahim, Malaysia's former deputy prime minister, who was imprisoned for sodomy charges in 2002, the trial having been criticised by a UN special envoy for compromising the independence and impartiality of the Malaysian justice system by, amongst other things, excluding senior judges from hearing the case; notes that previous trials were deemed not to have met international standards of fairness; further notes Anwar Ibrahim's ever-deteriorating health in detention; and calls on Her Majesty's Government to impress upon the Malaysian Government the importance of a just and fair decision in Anwar Ibrahim's case, which would only serve to improve Malaysia's standing in the international context of human rights.

This motion has been signed by a total of 54 MPs.
