PETALING JAYA: The Hague Court of Appeal has dismissed the Sulu claimants bid against Malaysia on three grounds, even stating that Spanish arbitrator Dr Gonzalo Stampa should have immediately ceased all arbitration activities after the Madrid Court nullified his appointment.
According to the Dutch court, the final arbitral award given to the eight individuals claiming to be heirs of the Sulu Sultanate on Feb 28 last year in France must be refused.
