Utusan reporter did not know what ultra vires means?

I got mixed feelings (angry, amused, confused and disappointed) when I first read the report in the “Malaysian Insider” news portal yesterday on “Utusan reporter says he thought ultra vires means ‘to insult’ “by Asrul Hadi. There are quite a number of comments posted by the readers after reading the news and the comments are overwhelmingly criticising the Utusan reporter, Mohd Nizam who is lacking in ethical conduct.
How can these happen? Utusan reporter did not know what ultra vires means? RTM reporter did not know who Karpal Singh is. Why are these reporters suddenly lost their memories?

It is a daylight robbery! The main point in these cases are not about whether Mohd Nizam too stupid that he did not know what does ultra vires means or Eliana Mazlan was too junior to know the famous politician and lawyer. It is very clear that they are lying, they committed contempt of court. They appearance before the court was just to complete the formality.

The whole problem is, Umno is getting more and more arrogant. If Umno wants to kill someone, they don’t even need to waste time to fabricate stories, they just hantam first. Those paperwork or evidence can be generated later. (You may find karpal Singh’s DNA in Kinta palace if Umno deem that is necessary?

Utusan can just anyhow make false accusation as long as they like it. It is hard for anyone to believe that this factually incorrect report slipped through so many pairs of eyes in Utusan’s working procedures before the report can be published. Utusan just doesn’t realise how serious is the consequences of their irresponsible report when it hits the streets. This incident reflected the arrogant attitude of Umno man. On the other hand, our dear Attorney General can base on Utusan’s reports to charge Karpal Singh under sedition act. Our AG is so confident about the accuracy of Utusan reports when the majority of Malaysian are not.

With these two morons giving such a retarded answers in court, I think the AG will not succeed in this court case. However, in the eye of the less educated, especially the kampong folks (where most of them are Umno’s supporter) Karpal Singh was charged in court because he insulted the sultan. The court ruled in favour of Karpal Singh was because there is not enough evidence to charge him rather than Karpal Singh is innocence. Of course, Utusan will help to paint such a picture. Umno win again.

Do we still have law and order in the country?
