12:44pm: The court was told that the police interrogation was a fishing expedition and extraneous grounds were used to justify the minister's order under Section 8 in order to circumvent defects in the police detention under Section 73. Jurisdictional error renders the minister's decision mala fide and susceptible to be set aside on judicial review. Hearing has been adjourned. Result will be out on the 7th November.
12:33pm: The court was told that various affidavits by the minister and police themselves show clear mala fide, and case precedents support RPK's position. Earlier, the court was told that RPK was merely discharging his muslim duty of amar maaruf nahi mungkar as confirmed by the Perlis mufti and Tok Guru Nik Aziz in letters tendered to the court. 12:18pm: Counsel Azhar Harun narrates facts of RPK's unlawful arrest and detention and attacks the minister's mala fide decision under section 8 of the ISA which is based on baseless police investigation. 11:41am: Counsel Azhar Harun, the S-G's brother, challenges the Minister's grounds for detaining RPK on ISA based on mala fide. 11:28 am: Judge Syed Helmi seems receptive to counsel Malik Imtiaz's argument on article 149 of the federal constitution impacting on Section 8 of the ISA that the Minister's act is ultra vires. Counsel Azhar Harun will address the court on mala fide after 15mins. break.

As our bro Pete wrote on 6/Sep/2008:
“Yes, I too have placed, not only my money, but also my freedom on Anwar. And if Anwar fails to deliver his promise on 16 September 2008, not only he but I as well am headed for a fallâ€
Where the hell are you DSAI???????
