00:24The application was filed on October 15 and names the Menteri Besar, Datuk Ismail Lasim, 10 EXCO members, and 6
00:32others as proposed contemptors.
00:34The application is linked to an originating summons involving 6 original plaintiffs who are now named as proposed contemptors.
00:43They are Datuk Mubarak Tahak, Datuk Maruf Mad Rashad, Datuk Muhammad Abdullah, Datuk Abdul Rahim Yassin, Tunku Syed Razman Tunku
00:53Syed Idrus Al-Qadri, and Datuk Sri Badaruddin Abdul Khalid.
