Pengerang resident fails to stop relocation of ancestors' tombs


JOHOR BARU: A resident affected by the Refinery and Petrochemicals Integrated Development (Rapid) project in Pengerang, about 110km from here, has failed in his bid to file an injunction to put off the digging and relocation of his ancestors’ graves.

The High Court rejected the claim by Lim Goo Kia on the grounds that Section 29 of the Government Proceeding Act provides for the court not to grant an injunction or make an order for specific performance.
