PUTRAJAYA: The Federal Court has ruled that there was a real danger of bias on the part of the Court of Appeal when it favoured construction company Fawziah Holdings Sdn Bhd in its appeal against toll concessionaire Metramac Corporation Sdn Bhd for the loss of its advertising rights. 

The five-man Bench was unanimous in overturning the controversial Court of Appeal decision delivered on Jan 12 last year, which implicated former finance minister Tun Daim Zainuddin and corporate figure Tan Sri Halim Saad.
