Court of Appeal says sufficient notice to show cause was given along with an explanation. FMTNews NajibRazak 1MDB
PUTRAJAYA: Umno Supreme Council member Lokman Noor Adam today failed again in his bid to set aside the leave obtained by the attorney-general to cite him for contempt of court in relation to former prime minister Najib Razak’s 1MDB trial.
“We are of the view that, although not in detail, sufficient notice to show cause was given with explanation.He was joined on the bench by Mohamad Zabidin Mohd Diah and Ahmad Nasfy Yasin. On Jan 14, High Court judge Collin Lawrence Sequerah said the attorney-general’s affidavit explaining why Lokman should be cited for showing disrespect to the court was not ambiguous.
On Oct 22 last year, Sequerah allowed then attorney-general Tommy Thomas to initiate committal proceedings against Lokman for allegedly threatening witness Amhari Efendi Nazaruddin in the 1MDB trial.
