RPK's counsel Malik has finished arguing his submissions in the habeas corpus case in the Putrajaya Federal Court with only 2 judges( Justice Zulkifli and Justice Nik Hashim) who insist on continuing with the trial. Judges adjourn till 1:30 to deliver decision on the recusal application.
Earlier at 11:07:00 Justice Augustine Paul recused himself.

Can man progress if the powers-that-be continue to throw every law in the book to shut away individuals and deprive them the basic right of "freedom of speech"?
Why would you fear mortal men if you had walked in the path of righteousness, huh ? Fear creeps-in when wrong-doings are challenged, fear creeps-in when corrupt practises are exposed, fear creeps-in when the skeletons in the closet are being pryed opened like a Pandora's box .

We all have, yes all of us, now...admit it, okay, have at sometime or other in our lives done something we ought to be ashamed off, if brought out in the open, yes ? We all have that same fear too, but does that mean we can stop anyone from exposing our best kept secrets ? Alot depends on the gravity of that sin that is being exposed and if you stand to loose everything you dreamed off, yes ? And if your sins amount to being punishable by imprisonment , will you not go to great depths and lengths and use every power in your privileged position to silence that person who might expose you ?

Think...we are, after all mere men and we can try to keep our best -kept secrets "safe" here on earth....but can we resort to the same "arrangement" when we meet our Maker ?
