MOOT COURT JUDGE:MRS. VJ
Appeal Rejected. Judgment of the High Court affirmed.Court Rules in favour of Respondents.
Overall Appellants & Respondents did a fabulous job.There is great potential.
(Setback:Appellants bungling their way through documents and both the Appellants and the Respondents reading from notes like TV newscasters)- Nothing personal here.
Appellants would have won the day if they had ventillated the points as enunciated in the case of Fan Yew Teng v PP 2 MLJ 1975 at p. 235- pertinent passages.." Mere criticism of Goverment is not sufficient to constitute sedition.In a parliamentary democracy constructive criticism is always welcomed by the Goverment of the day.Honest and reasonable criticism is a source of strength to the country rather than a weakness.There is nothing to prevent a person criticising the system of goverment or expressing a desire for a different system of Goverment..."
The Appellants overlooked this case.
