FORMER attorney-general Mohamed Apandi Ali has offered free legal aid to participants of the mega-rally protesting against the International Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination (ICERD).

Apandi, who is offering the legal services via his law firm Apandi Ali & Co, said he was doing so as he believed in what the gathering stood for, and said he was confident that many others would step up to support the organisers.

  • Save your time and breath Pandi !!!! you need it as you might be too busy to extricate yourself from all the pending charges that will hit until you are breathless. Playing hero when you are zero only encumbrance when you are a total wash out. You have nothing to offer and by doing this antics of yours are just desperation by hours to buy support. Sudah Lah !!! Tunggu sja untuk di remanded than jangan sibuk sekrang . Kerja bodoh dan hanya masa yang terhad. Siapkan preparation awak untuk membicara charges against you. Pathetic betul!!!!!

  • What an asshole. The least he can do is to educate his UMNO members the true implications of ratifying ICERD. He is a disgrace to the human race.

  • Apandi has finally emerged from the 1MDB hole. Just like the 1MDB case hes defending the indefensible.

  • He's hoping that there will be enough trouble and violence that the current government will fail so that his own skin will be saved. This is motivated by pure self-interest.
    Aiding and abetting the theft of billions of dollars from 1MDB are reasons enough for criminal charges to be brought against someone who was totally complicit in shielding MO1 from justice.

  • This fool is no lawyer. Why is anyone with half a brain will rally for something that's not there at all. This is only to topple the current government and these guys are treasonous.

  • Apandi's hoping against hope that the Pakatan Harapan government will collapse, so he can be let off the hook, kan?
