KUALA LUMPUR: The Federal Court has granted leave to the Government to raise questions of law over the damages awarded to The Edge Communications Sdn Bhd after the Home Ministry suspended two of its publications in 2015.

Federal Court judge Justice Zulkefli Ahmad Makinudin, who chaired a three-man panel, allowed the Ministry's application to pose three questions after The Edge's counsel Raja Eileen Soraya Raja Aman did not raise an objection.
