No bail provision in Yusoff Rawther trial valid, High Court told

KUALA LUMPUR: The no bail provision under Section 41B of the Dangerous Drugs Act (DDA) 1952 is valid and does not contravene the Federal Constitution, the High Court was told on Wednesday (Nov 6).

The government, as the defendant, stated this in an affidavit-in-reply in a legal action filed by former researcher Muhammed Yusoff Rawther who is challenging a Magistrate's Court decision denying him bail.
