00:00Former Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak is proceeding with his attempt to cite former Attorney General Tanshri Ahmad Terirudin
00:07Mohamad Saleh for contempt.
00:09Najib's legal team said the case will go on over claims that the Ahmad Terirudin concealed the existence of a
00:15royal addendum order that could have allowed Najib to be placed under house arrest.
00:20The contempt application is still on, because when we are trying to discover that document, we are saying the respondent
00:30was not honest.
00:33He should have said, ah, I've got a copy. And then he can say, I've got a copy, but I
00:39cannot give it to you because we think it may not be enforceable.
00:43He can do all that. Or at the leave stage, he doesn't have to turn up. The leave stage is
00:49for, it's a filter what is nonsensical punya application that cause so much problem to a government department because order
00:5853, you must know.
00:59He's always about enforcing or demolishing an order of public functionary. So the AG is supposed to turn up just
01:09to say wasting of time. Things like that.
01:12But this is a case involving the AG himself. Can he appear and say something to the effect that there
01:20is no case?
01:21You yourself are in issue under order 52 because we're saying the former AG committed contempt.
01:30Najib's appeal against the High Court's dismissal of his contempt action on Ahmad Terirudin, who is now a federal court
01:37judge,
01:37was initially fixed for hearing before a three-judge panel at the Court of Appeal on Friday.
01:42In September last year, Kuala Lumpur High Court Judge Justice Alice Loke Yiching dismissed Najib's contempt application,
01:50saying that Najib had failed to prove prima facie in the case.
01:54At the outset of the proceedings, Justice Lim Chongfong, who chaired the panel,
01:59questioned whether Najib's present appeal was linked to another case presided by Justice Loke.
02:04The judge was referring to another decision by Justice Loke in December,
02:08where she dismissed Najib's judicial review application relating to a royal addendum order.
02:14Justice Lim posed the legal quandary on whether the present appeal should be heard
02:18before the disposal of the judicial review appeal on the addendum order,
02:21or whether the two cases are one and the same.
02:24Justice Lim then fixed March 30th for case management to hear updates from both parties.
