KUCHING - The Public Services Commission (SPA) can take action against civil servants who leak court judgment papers, Minister in the Prime Minister's Department (Parliament and Law) Datuk Seri Dr Wan Junaidi Tuanku Jaafar said.

He said SPA has specific provisions and disciplinary powers that can be used against those involved as courts have rules to comply with.

"What should not have happened has happened. Do not do anything that can cause problems.

"In this case, to the Judiciary,” he told reporters after the ‘Kembara Anak Samurai ke Sarawak’ programme in Santubong near here tonight.

He was commenting on the alleged leaked judgment on Datin Seri Rosmah Mansor’s corruption case.
