Take it to ICJ if you have proof, Azalina tells Sulu claimants


PETALING JAYA: Datuk Seri Azalina Othman Said (pic) has told the self-proclaimed heirs of the late Sultan Sulu to take their claim of sovereignty over Sabah to the International Court of Justice (ICJ) if they have solid evidence.

The Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department (Law and Institutional Reforms) said the Sulu claims, which involved several jurisdictions in France, Spain, the Netherlands, and Luxembourg, were not a commercial issue but one that touched on sovereignty.
