12:07 pm
they were originally due to report to the king on monday. on slower reports, some of them fall was not going as smoothly as herbs, which is why the palace had to extend the deadline. the original deadline by 24 hours. now were there have been a few developments weed in yes. and who leads the 2nd largest block? he is the leader of the national alliance. now his side as issued a statement to say they have obtained more than a 112 signed declarations from members of parliament expressing their support form we'd in yes and to be the next prime minister of malaysia. 112 is the number needed to form a simple majority in parliament. however, that statement did not reveal the names or the actual number of people expressing their support for meeting yes, and of course, he's not the only contender, the leader of the opposition on what you brought him, these the largest block in parliament. they've got 82 out of 222 seats. now his side met with m p. 's from the national front. it's and they've traditionally been
12:08 pm
rivals this contest against each other of elections passed on was coalition defeated the national front for the 1st time in 60 years in the 2018 elections. so for them to work together is pretty unusual. but they have already indicated they are working together to form next to want to state governments. that's unusual, but it's also an indication that it could happen. annoy bro, him in a press conference on monday. says he's confident of being able to form a unity government under his leadership, but there was no other information about the details or the level of support. he's got a comp south african called says medical. busy pearl rounded, the former president, jacob zoom, was unlawful, irrational, and unconstitutional. but the supreme court of appeal is yet to rule on whether you will have to return to prison. last year, summa was sentenced to 15 months for refusing to testify before corruption inquiry . the 8th year old was released on medical parole officer serving 2 months later.
12:09 pm
mila is lying for us in johannesburg. so for me, the ultimately, what does this all mean? is it likely he's going to go back to prison? i think, as we've seen before, with the former president jacob summa, so many issues in the search judgment remain unclear and uncertain. what is key from that judgment from the supreme court of appeal is that it said that the former president has not finished serving his sentence. it said that the medical parole, as you'd mentioned, was unlawful. and that goes back to just how he was granted medical parole. unilaterally essentially by the correctional services commissioner at the time and reportedly against the advice of the parole board at which is usually taken into account when granting medical parole. and also what's important in this case is that the former president hadn't specifically, according to his lawyers applied for that medical parole, and he was granted by correctional services. so while the supreme court of appeal
12:10 pm
is the highest in the land, it does appear as if the former president does have $30.00 to $60.00 days to approach the constitutional court to say that his rights were infringed while on medical parole. because while he was out of prison while he was at home, he did have to abide by certain restrictions put in place by correctional services . so he didn't enjoy all the rights that a free person in this country would enjoy essentially. so this is one of the questions at hand at the moment is whether or not he will go to the constitutional court. and also what wasn't clear in the judgement by the supreme court of appeal was a timeline. they didn't give a timeline around when he should report to correctional services and how long he would have to stay in prison once he returns. they have said that it is up to the commissioner, a new commission at this point of a correctional services. if his time on medical parole will count. so again, for the former president who has managed to evade, i suppose time in prison. and he is facing a number of issues,
12:11 pm
legal issues with its corruption charges, where they, it's this particular prison sentence for not appearing before a corruption commission. again, though, the former president, it's ok whether not he will report to prison immediately whether he has to and certainly how long for or i, thanks so much for me to mila. 9 years since a gathering in a central square in the ukrainian capital changed a nation we revisit gives may, dan, ah, hello, has a very heavy rainfall recently into vietnam. you can see the thunder has a rumbling through the south china sea, running toward that east coast of vietnam to the north of hockey. men,
