Criminal Court, Not Civil Court, Senior Federal Counsel Tells High Court

The High Court in Kuala Lumpur was told that the application by former finance minister Tun Daim Zainuddin and his wife, Toh Puan Na'imah Abdul Khalid, to strike out the charge made against them for failing to declare their assets should have been made in the Criminal Court and not in the Civil Court, national news agency Bernama reported today.

Senior Federal Counsel (SFC) Encik Liew Horng Bin said if the application to quash the charge was heard in the Civil Court through a judicial review, all evidence related to the case would be revealed in the court concerned.

"Therefore the application to quash the charge should be made in the Criminal Court. The application to stay proceeding (of a criminal case) should be done in the relevant (criminal) court," he said during the online proceeding today, Tuesday February 27, before Judge Datuk Wan Ahmad Farid Wan Salleh.

Also at the proceeding was lawyer Encik Mervyn Lai, representing Daim and Na'imah.

The court then ordered the parties involved to file additional submissions before or on March 1.

Earlier, Liew told the court that he did not object to the application by Daim and Na'imah to amend several paragraphs in their application for leave to initiate a judicial review against the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission's (MACC) investigation against them.

The amendment is about the notice served under Section 36 (1) of the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) Act 2009 to Daim and Na'imah.

Daim, 85, Nai'mah, 66, and their four children, Asnida, 62, Md Wira Dani, 45, Muhammed Amir Zainuddin, 28, and Muhammed Amin Zainuddin, 25, and Ilham Tower Sdn Bhd had applied for the leave last January 10.

They named MACC and the public prosecutor as the first and second respondents.

On January 16, the application for leave was heard before Justice Encik Wan Ahmad Farid Wan Salleh who fixed March 4 to deliver his ruling.

Last January 29, Daim was charged in the Sessions Court here with failing to comply with a notice to declare his assets, which include several luxury vehicles, companies and properties in Kuala Lumpur, Selangor Pahang, Negeri Sembilan, Perak and Kedah.

Earlier, on January 23, Na’imah was charged in the same Sessions Court with failing to comply with a notice by not declaring her property including Menara Ilham and several properties around Kuala Lumpur and Penang.

MAHATHIR MAY REJOIN UMNO

Image
What Mahathir expected did not happen Initially, Mahathir Mohamad thought his party – PPBM (Bersatu) – could  morph  into a new version of UMNO. After all, it was him who brilliantly destroyed the original UMNO in 1988 and created “UMNO Baru” (the current UMNO version 2.0). But unlike in 1988, Mr. Mahathir had quit UMNO to form PPBM on 8 September 2016, and was no longer in charge of UMNO. UMNO won four times higher than Bersatu in GE14 Hence, after he leveraged on opposition Pakatan Harapan and stunningly defeated the scandal-plagued Najib government, his first priority was  recruiting  UMNO MPs to join his party. UMNO, although lost miserably, still won 54 parliamentary seats in the May 2018 General Election – more than 4 times the number of seats Mahathir’s party managed to capture. PPBM the worst among four strategic parties Mahathir’s party won  only 13 seats  out of the 52 Parliamentary seats it contested in the 2018 poll. That’s ...

Image

Janganlah jealous lelaki Rohingya dapat awek Melayu cun💝

Image
Kalau kita nak tackle perempuan Melayu tetapi cinta kita ditolak, maka kita harus menghadapi kenyataan ini dengan tenang dan penuh istiqamah, pasrah lagi bertawakkal. Terimalah ia sebagai ketentuan Allah. Mungkin ada hikmah di sebaliknya. Perempuan itu memilih lelaki Rohingya atas penilaiannya sendiri. Mungkin dia terpikat dari aspek kegagahan, ketulusan cinta, keromantikan, kekacakan dan ke-handsome-an yang luar biasa keistimewaannya serta berbagai ciri-ciri lain yang tiada pada lelaki Melayu. Janganlah kita mengutuk takdir yang menentukan. Ia tidak akan merubah hati perempuan itu yang telah terkunci di dalam hati seorang jejaka Rohingya. Lagipun, sedarilah. Angkara pihak berkuasa yang mengelirukan, kita orang Melayu sudah menjadi warga kelas tiga yang menumpang dalam negara sendiri. Standard kita setakat menjadi penerima bantuan kerajaan sahaja. Semua orang luar seolah-olah bebas memasuki negara ini. Kita bukan siapa-siapa. Dalam satu hantaran penuh emosi semalam, akaun Facebook Fri...

Bersama expected to win half of PKR, DAP and Amanah's existing parliamentary and state seats in Johor

Image
Analysts say Johor state elections will be PH Vs BN — but they overlook Bersama PAS and Bersatu are expected to face a rough ride in the upcoming Johor state election, as both parties look set to go their own way while their potential allies appear lacklustre. Though both parties have announced efforts to form new political configurations amid Perikatan Nasional’s ongoing crisis, news portal FMT spoke to Dr Mazlan Ali of Universiti Teknologi Malaysia and he said these new alliances would not be earth-shattering in Johor. Mazlan said both parties had limited options for allies, having been linked to the same entities such as Berjasa, Pejuang, Putra, and Muda. He added that these small parties command little influence and are incapable of taking on Barisan Nasional or Pakatan Harapan. “I don’t see any real competition in Johor. It will be more like BN against PH, as PAS and Bersatu have been weakened by their division. “Although these small parties will want to help them, they will not ...
