AGC raises objection in PD voter's suit against Anwar

The Attorney-General's Chambers today raised a preliminary objection on a suit filed by a Port Dickson voter against PKR president-elect Anwar Ibrahim and the Pardons Board over his royal pardon for a sodomy conviction.

Senior federal counsel Suzana Atan, who appeared with Shamsul Bolhassan, told reporters that the High Court in Kuala Lumpur has no jurisdiction to hear the matter as Noraziah Mohd Shariff should have filed the case with the Election Court.

The objection by the AG's Chambers on behalf of the Pardons Board came after Anwar filed an application to strike out the suit yesterday.

Justice Azizah Nawawi then fixed Nov 8 to hear the preliminary objection and striking-out application as Noraziah's lawyer M Reza Hassan just received the documents yesterday.

Anwar's lawyer J Leela had told Malaysiakini that her client applied to strike out Noraziah's suit on the grounds of non-justiciability of the full pardon granted and the fact that the voter concerned did not have the "locus standi" (legal standing).

"We further said that the suit is frivolous, vexatious and an abuse of the court process," she added.
