High Court Judge Datuk Nik Hasmat Nik Mohamad allowed the application by the defendants to strike out the suit by the party in chambers in the presence of senior federal counsel S. Narkunavathy and lawyer Datuk Hariharan Tara Singh representing Umno. She said the court also found that Umno did not have a local standi and that there was no cause of reasonable action to sue the defendants.
In its statement of claims, Umno among other things sought a declaration that the raids and the impoundment carried out on May 17, 2018, at the premises on Tower B, Pavilion Residences, Jalan Raja Chulan, were wrongful in terms of the law.
