It is the quest of law to achieve justice in every legal proceeding. Thus. the court. tribunal or any legally constituted body must pursue justice by strictly adhering to the laid down principle that justice should not only be done but must seen to be done. The principles of natural justice laid down two essential elements to be observed by the adjudicator ie Audi Alteram Partem or also known as no one should be condemned unheard and Nemo Judex in Causa Sua or popularly known as the rule against bias. These cardinal principles of law believe that those called on to adjudicate not only have no link with either side but also they must maintain their impartiality and objectivity. On the other hand, the adjudicator also should provide proper notice and reasonable opportunity to the accused to defend his or her case. As a tribunal, the student's disciplinary proceeding conducted by Lembaga Tatatertib University is no exception. It must be seen to be impartial, independent and disinterested. Thus, Lembaga Tatatertib Universiti must take care not only that their decisions are not influenced by their personal interests but they must also avoid the appearance of laboring under such an influence.
