PUTRAJAYA: Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad and Datuk Seri Khairuddin Abu Hassan have failed to obtain leave to appeal their tort of misfeasance in public office lawsuit against Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak pertaining to 1Malaysia Development Bhd (1MDB).  

The 92-year-old former prime minister and the 55-year-old former Batu Kawan Umno vice-chief had sought leave to appeal after their suit against Najib was struck out by the High Court and the subsequent decision upheld by the Court of Appeal.
