The trial judge has the power to convert any premise outside the court to conduct proceedings or summon the doctor who is treating Rosmah Mansor, say lawyers. FMTNews RosmahMansor
Rosmah Mansor has been admitted at a private hospital for severe neck and backache.
“I believe the judge could also order a government doctor to review her condition if the prosecution makes an application,” he told FMT. Syed Iskandar said the judge had the inherent power under the Courts of Judicature Act and the Criminal Procedure Code to convert any premise outside the court into a court to hold proceedings.
“She is suffering from pain in the neck and arthritis,” he said, describing it as a “life-threatening condition”.
