There are multiple questions which raise unhelpful suspicion after single-judge bench granted Zambry with a stay. But a stay remains a stay. A stay is simple a temporary suspension of execution. In the context of Perak, it means a temporary suspension pending decision on the requested appeal by Zambry to the Federal Court against High Court decision made yesterday. It is not an overturn.
In all honesty, that is fair.
Everybody, either for or against the High Court ruling, should take a deep breath and not get too overly excited. The ultimate decision has yet to be made.
In the meantime, while I am not educated in the legal field, I do feel that the next step for Nizar is to file for an injunction to prevent Zambry from using the power of the Menteri Besar Office to do anything else. Just as the stay is fair, an injunction will ensure both sides are being fair.
It is only fair if both sides refrain from doing anything detrimental to the position of both side.
