Judge of the Appellate Division Woo Bih Li, in his judgment, said the stay was granted without being set down for hearing, pending the determination of Pannir Selvam’s Post-Appeal Applications in Capital Cases (PACC) application.
Woo said that he granted Pannir Selvam permission to make a PACC application on the grounds that he has a pending complaint with the Law Society of Singapore against his former counsel Ong Ying Ping, as well as a pending determination of another case on constitutional challenge related to Singapore’s drug laws.
Woo also considered the Attorney-General (AG)’s written submissions and the Senior Director in the Policy Development Division of the Home Ministry, Sanjay Nanwani’s affidavit on February 18.
He was not granted a Certificate of Substantial Assistance (CSA) by the Public Prosecutor and was sentenced to the mandatory death penalty.
Singapore’s PACC Act, which came into effect on June 28, 2024, allows PACP to make post-appeal applications, which can only be heard by the Court of Appeal.
If permission is granted, the PACC Application must be made to the Court of Appeal within three days from the date of approval.
The Court of Appeal will then determine the PACC Application.
