Bill Allowing Removal of Officials Faces Criticism
Imagine a new law saying if a politician gets arrested, they can lose their job after a month.

Critics view the bill as an assault on democracy and natural justice.
The bill undermines the presumption of innocence, a democratic principle.
Government is accused of misusing laws to jail political opponents.
