The Selangor government was denied a discovery application to have the addresses and locality of 136,272 dubious voters and to cross-examine the chairperson of the Election Commission (EC), Hashim Abdullah.
A three-member Federal Court bench led by Chief Justice Md Raus Sharif refused to grant leave to the state government.
“We find there are no special circumstances to grant leave as there are no novel issues with regard to the seven questions posed before the court.”
"This is an interlocutory matter and the threshold under Section 96 of the Courts of Judicature Act 1964 and hence this application is dismissed," the chief justice said.
Despite the decision today, the hearing of the merits of the judicial review application to challenge the present redelineation exercise will continue, with case management fixed for tomorrow at the High Court in Kuala Lumpur.
