🚨 The government is objecting to former researcher Yu R's lawsuit regarding the Dangerous Drugs Act 1952.

⚖️ The lawsuit claims that a provision disallowing bail violates his constitutional rights. This was presented by federal counsel Muhari Muhammad.

📅 The government informed Justice Ju Ahmed Faridan of its position in the high court today.

👨‍⚖️ Yu's lawyer, Rafik Rashid Ali, stated that the government has previously taken the same stance on a constitutional challenge to section 41b of the DDA.

🗓️ Following today's proceedings, Rafik announced that they must submit their affidavits by January 20th.

💼 Yu was charged in September with cannabis trafficking and possession of fake guns.

📜 He filed a lawsuit to declare section 41b unconstitutional, seeking a referral to the federal court for determination.
