I have not written for some time due to health reasons, but the case involving the death of Aminulrasyid Amzah attracts my attention. First, my belated condolences to the victim's bereaved family - Al-Fatihah. What I'm saying here should not be misconstrued as being insensitive to the victim's family.
I've followed the developments on the case with sadness (due to the loss of a human life) and trepidation (due to its politicization) in equal measures. I view the case with great caution since it is still under investigation, but I could not resist saying this: It's obvious that we are now witnessing another circus in town, just after another one - the Teoh Beng Hock case - appears to have lost its steam.
Blog posts have sprouted, arguing the pros and cons of the case. One of the posts by Mahaguru58 (reproduced below) says it all, arguably encapsulating what is really going on.

When the political buzzards start circling..something really stinks!
In the first place, these teenagers broke the law! How many laws? Let's count them.
- Taking a car out without permission from it's owner.
- Driving without a license!
- Grazing another car and speeding away!
- Hit and run after being involved in a collision with a motorcyclist!
- Failing to stop after being chased by a police patrol car!
- Driving on after being warned by the police through their patrol car loudhailer!
- Driving on after the car's tyres were shot!
- Escaping from the law ~ the culprit above.
And here we have the usual opposition lawyers ever ready to take advantage of a political coup de grace milling about the teenage offender like buzzards circling above homing in for a kill!
A media kill that is.
The law and order situation in this land has surely gone bonkers!
Traffic offenders and all other bloody lawbreakers are being toasted and serenaded as celebrities whilst the law enforcement officials and upholders are lampooned and lambasted by these political parasites!
Remember Kartika Sari Dewi Shukarnor? Instead of shaming the syariah offender, the media turned her and her dad into media luminaries! They ended up embarrassing the Syariah Court instead!
Would any of these bloody buzzards be willing to go protect our nation from the crooks and criminals at large out there?
You can bet that these attention seeking vermin won't dare do so even for one single night!
The PDRM were just doing their job ~ apprehending lawbreakers!
The entire episode just took place as what any committed law enforcement officials would have done anywhere in the whole wide world?
You see the same old 'championing' faces out there at the press conferences every time there is an offender crying out as if he or she is bloody innocent in the first place?
The whole scenario just stinks!
Only in Malaysia will we see such a thing! Law breakers being championed whilst the law enforcement authorities ridiculed, cursed and lampooned by every Ahmad, Ah Seng and Samy out there as if they are so bloody perfect and infallible?
What a rotten stinking scenario this case has turned out to be!
Yes, the vultures (read the opportunistic opposition and their cohorts) have descended on their prey. They will stay until the damage is well and truly complete. Then they will look for another prey. They will spring more booby traps along the way. Stay tuned!
Is there provisions in the Contitution, that only 'proper' case should be adjudicated? What does proper mean. Can the court registrar make decisions, before the case is sent to court. Can the registrar make decision before a case go to appeal court. Looks like our courtsa are being 'abuse' to the maximum. OR Is it that the registrar and the Judge are too mindful to the point that lawyers take advantage of the situasion? Does my questions make sense. Mr lawyers please comment.
