PUTRAJAYA (Bernama): Umno supreme council member Datuk Lokman Noor Adam (pic) has failed again to set aside the leave obtained by the Attorney General (AG) to initiate committal proceedings against him for allegedly intimidating a witness in Datuk Seri Najib Razak’s 1Malaysia Development Bhd (1MDB) case.
A three member-panel of Court of Appeal led by Justice Datuk Yaacob Md Sam unanimously dismissed Lokman’s appeal on Wednesday (May 13) and held that there was no error made by the High Court in allowing the leave application by the AG to commence the contempt proceedings, which warrant this court’s intervention.
