Photos: Federal Court Reserves Judgement On ‘Allah’ Case

Solat hajat at the Palace of Justice in Putrajaya, March 5, 2014.

This morning I went to the Palace of Justice in Putrajaya for the hearing of the “Allah” case.

The Federal Court has reserved judgement in the leave application by Catholic weekly Herald to challenge the Home Ministry over the ban on the use of the word “Allah”.

The seven-man panel are Chief Justice Arifin Zakaria, Court of Appeal president Justice Raus Sharif, Chief Judge of Malaya Justice Zulkefli Ahmad Makinudin, Chief Judge of Sabah and Sarawak Justice Richard Malanjum and Federal Court judges Justices Suriyadi Halim Omar, Zainun Ali and Jeffrey Tan.

Below are some of the photos that I snapped.

Niagara Falls freeze again as the temperature hits -12C in the area.

Many parts of U.S and Canada had been attacked by cold snap since November 2013.

Another record breaking cold front was set on January and managed to freeze the mighty falls in a polar vortex which turned the cascading water to ice.

And now the Niagara Falls freeze again for the second time in less than two months. 

And it is reported that there are no signs of the frigid cold releasing its icy grip from the country anytime soon.

I had visited the Niagara Falls when I was about three; there was no ice at that time but I remember the beautiful rainbows above the water falls.

The Falls rarely freeze with the first known occurence in 1912. Due to the continual cold weather that has hit the U.S and Canada it has frozen twice since the beginning of the year. (Reuters)

The cold snap returned to Canada and the U.S., with more than 2,500 flights cancelled already. (Reuters)

Mist rises above the icy water. A powerful winter storm has pummelled the East Coast causing the U.S government to close its offices in Washington. (Reuters)
