This petition is submitted in good faith, based on observations of court proceedings and statements made in open court. It does not seek to determine guilt or to interfere with judicial independence, but to express public concern regarding factors relevant to bail, including witness safety, public interest, and the integrity of the judicial process.

 
On 1 September 2025, Julian Ramiah lost his life.

Not to chance.
Not to illness.
But as the result of an act of violence now before the courts.

Julian was not merely a name on a charge sheet. He was a Husband, Brother, father, a son, a friend — a human being whose absence has left a permanent and painful void. His family now grieves a loss that words cannot undo, while simultaneously being required to navigate courtrooms, procedures, and fear.

This petition is written because justice does not exist in silence alone.
It exists when the truth is protected, when witnesses are safe, and when grieving families are not further harmed by the very processes meant to uphold the law.

Julian Ramiah no longer has a voice.
His family deserves dignity, safety, and the space to grieve without fear.

This petition respectfully supports the State’s opposition to bail and asks that the court give careful consideration to the concerns of the family, friends and loved ones, when determining whether the interests of justice permit the release of the accused.
