malaysiakini on KARPAL SINGH'S Case

I believe many Malaysian's support Karpal's Singh's intention to test the decision-making authority of the Perak sultan to remove the Perak MB without the proper procedures.
malaysiakini has more details here.
If the law allows it, how can asking the court to decide on the matter be "treason" as some demonstrators are claiming. As the former Lord President, the sultan too should be magnanimous enough to see if his judgement and interpretation can pass the test in a court of law.
The police as usual seem to be practising double standards as far as UMNO Youth is concerned. Allowing 300 rowdy demonstrators to protest in busy Kuala Lumpur is hardly conducive to portraying Malaysia as a country that practises the rule of law.
The whole Perak episode indicates that pirates are running the show now - but of course we are more civilised than those hijackers of Somalia.
