In delivering the court’s decision, Court of Appeal president Tan Sri Ahmad Maarop said D. Heryati Abdul Rahim’s cause of action was a breach of contract and not a claim for recovery of land as alleged by her. — Reuters pic
He said the limitation period to file a breach of contract lawsuit was six years from the time the alleged contract was breached.Justice Ahmad dismissed Heryati’s appeal and ordered her to pay RM30,000 in costs to the respondents, Tan Sri Lau Ban Tin and his wife, Puan Sri Mary Lee Siew Cheng. “Despite this, when she filed her claim she did not cite Tengku Mohd Kamil and Tengku Ramli as parties. If she wanted the land she should have sued Tengku Mohd Kamil and Tengku Ramli. She did not do so,” he said.
She claimed that at the time, she was still the wife of the former deputy prime minister and co-owned shares with him in the company, Zamrudvest Sdn Bhd, which operated a franchise under ‘EON Dealers and Franchise’.
