KUALA LUMPUR: Former Cabinet minister Datuk Zaid Ibrahim (pic) is seeking leave from a High Court to subpoena witnesses for his judicial review proceedings over the Attorney General's decision not to prosecute Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak.

On the other hand, the Attorney-General will be raising a preliminary objection on Zaid's application under Article 145 (3) of the Federal Constitution that the decision not to prosecute "is prerogative powers of the Attorney-General which cannot be challenged in court."
