(ISA is a fair law? Image source: http://allposters.com)
From the NST:-
Home Minister Datuk Seri Syed Hamid Albar said the act had always been used in a just, fair and ethical matter.
“It has never been abused or used for politics,” he said in reply to People’s Progressive Party President Datuk M. Kayveas’ threat to take the party out of Barisan Nasional if the ISA was not amended or repealed by the next general election.
The words just, fair and ethical – hardly the words used to justify the use of a draconian law that holds someone without any opportunity to be presented in a court of law and at the whims and fancy of the politicians.
ISA had never been abused or used for politics? The sky must be falling down.
