Section 41B of the Dangerous Drugs Act, as interpreted by binding Federal Court authority, overrides the general bail provision in s.388 Criminal Procedure Code; therefore the court has no jurisdiction to grant bail to persons charged under s.39B of the Act (offences punishable with death) and the applicants' claims of prior illegal detention or delay do not constitute special circumstances to displace s.41B.

The court dismissed the bail application: it held it was not bound by Saminathan or Koh Chin Wah and that, absent a valid exception under s13(2) SOSMA, section 13 properly construed and presumptively constitutional prevents the exercise of section 388 CPC to grant bail for security offences; therefore the applicant was not entitled to bail.

The application for bail is dismissed: the court concluded the sabotage offence (s124K) can fall within SOSMA’s scope given the Act’s purpose and limb (f) of Article 149, and the applicant failed to prove the sickness exception or otherwise discharge the burden to justify bail under SOSMA or section 388 CPC.

The court found the prosecution did not satisfy it of reasonable grounds to believe the accused committed a non-bailable offence at the bail stage, considered the applicant's advanced age and poor health, and concluded that balancing the relevant bail factors justified granting bail under section 388 CPC despite the restrictive language of section 41B DDA; bail was granted on conditions.
