Former Malaysian Bar president Ambiga Sreenevasan said immediate and decisive action by lawyers is needed in the face of attacks on the judiciary.<br /><br />She said this in explaining a petition started by her and five other former Bar presidents calling on the Bar Council to mobilise a "Walk for Justice" similar to what was done in 2007 when allegations of judicial fixing emerged.<br /><br />"This petition was launched to urge the Bar Council to hold a walk by members of the Bar sooner rather than later.<br /><br />"There are moments in time that require an immediate and decisive response from the lawyers and this is one of them," she told Malaysiakini.
