LUMPUR: The High Court here today ruled that Datuk Seri Khairuddin Abu Hassan has no locus standi to file a legal action to compel Attorney-General (AG) Tan Sri Idrus Harun to advise Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin to resign from the Prime Minister’s post for allegedly not having the majority support of Parliament.
Judge Datuk Ahmad Kamal Md Shahid said this was clearly outlined in Order 53 rule 2(4) of the Rules of Court (ROC) 2012, that to have a locus standi in a judicial review application, the applicant (Khairuddin) must be adversely affected by the decision, action or omission of any public authority in relation to the exercise of its public duty or function.
