The House has rejected an emergency motion tabled by N Surendran (PKR-Padang Serai) to debate the release of jailed opposition leader Anwar Ibrahim.
Dewan Rakyat Speaker Pandikar Amin Mulia made the decision on grounds that the court had made its ruling on Anwar's case.
"I find that the conviction and punishment had been meted after a fair legal process in court. The detention of Anwar in Sungai Buloh Prison came from a legitimate order," Pandikar said in a written reply.
Surendran tabled the emergency motion after the Asean Parliamentarians for Human Rights (APHR) issued a statement on Nov 6, which demanded that Anwar be released without condition.
