High Court justice Ian Chin, who made explosive claims that ex-premier Dr Mahathir Mohamad had threatened judges, has tendered his resignation from the judiciary.
Deputy Minister in Prime Minister's Department T Murugiah told Parliament today that the judge had submitted his resignation to the king in a letter dated July 16.
"He will step down from Dec 1, 2008. At this time, he has started his leave from Aug 1 until Nov 30," he told the House.
Murugiah was responding to a question from Mukhriz Mahathir (BN-Jerlun) if any action would be taken against the judge for making claims of the government's interference in the judiciary.
A similar question was also posed by Tian Chua (PKR-Batu).
Murugiah said that since Chin had tendered his resignation, there was no need to take any action against the Kota Kinabalu High Court judge.
