PUTRAJAYA: The Selangor Government is considering settling out of court and compensating the Temuan tribe for losing their customary and ancestral land to the state following a land acquisition exercise to build a highway in 1995.

The state government therefore sought a postponement of its appeal in the Federal Court here against a lower court's ruling which declared that the land acquired for the Elite Highway was customary and ancestral land occupied by the tribe for generations.
