All courtrooms were vacated, with court staff, lawyers and reporters seen gathering in front of the building.

PUTRAJAYA: The Election Commission (EC) legal challenge at the Court of Appeal was abruptly cut short by a fire drill at the Palace of Justice here on Monday.

The EC was applying to set aside a stay order obtained by the Selangor state government stopping the EC from holding local enquiries, in a bid to complete its redelineation exercise.
