M'sian govt applies for permission to appeal London Commercial Court decision

Ng will waive extradition to the United States on Friday during an appearance in a court in Malaysia, according to his lawyer Marc Agnifilo.

PETALING JAYA: The Malaysian government has filed an application for permission to appeal against the London Commercial Court's decision to delay its legal challenge, seeking to nullify a consent award involving 1MDB, Minister of Financed Incorporated (Mofi) and two Abu Dhabi-based companies.

Attorney General Tommy Thomas said the Commercial Court wanted ongoing parallel arbitration proceedings between the companies involved to be resolved first.
