Recall court denies melayes request against inec #

You're referring to the recent news about Datuk Seri Azmin Ali, the Economic Affairs Minister, and his wife, Datuk Seri Wan Azizah Wan Ismail, the former Deputy Prime Minister.

On February 24, 2023, the Federal Court dismissed Datuk Seri Azmin Ali's appeal against the decision of the Court of Appeal, which had dismissed his application to strike out a suit filed by his wife, Datuk Seri Wan Azizah Wan Ismail, against the Independent Electoral Commission (IEC).

The suit was filed by Datuk Seri Wan Azizah Wan Ismail, who is also the President of Parti Keadilan Rakyat (PKR), against the IEC, seeking a declaration that the IEC's decision to deregister PKR was unlawful and unconstitutional.

Datuk Seri Azmin Ali, who is also the PKR deputy president, had filed an application to strike out the suit, claiming that his wife did not have the locus standi to bring the suit. However, the Court of Appeal dismissed his application, and he subsequently appealed to the Federal Court.

The Federal Court's decision to dismiss Datuk Seri Azmin Ali's appeal means that the suit filed by his wife against the IEC will proceed.
