POH, Sept 9 (Bernama) -- Perak Menteri Besar Datuk Seri Dr Zambry Abdul Kadir said Wednesday the opposition in the state should respect the principle of upholding the constitution and accept yesterday's High Court decision instead of making baseless accusations and claims.
"I have all along abided by the principle of upholding the constitution even when court decisions have been against me; I respect the law," he told reporters after chairing a meeting of the state executive council, here.
The High Court here on Tuesday struck out with costs the suit by Perak Legislative Assembly former speaker V. Sivakumar against the current speaker Datuk R. Ganesan, seeking damages for assault and battery and wrongful detention, as well as aggravated damages.
Zambry said the people could evaluate the opposition from the series of suits filed in the courts.
"They are not satisfied. If the court decision is in their favour, they say the court is fair but if it is not then they say the court is unfair," he said.
He said the opposition should cease all irresponsible acts and serve as a credible opposition in the interests of the state and people.
