AGC, Umno object to three individuals' bid to challenge Umno's no-contest decision

KUALA LUMPUR: The Attorney-General's Chambers (AGC) and Umno on Wednesday (July 26) objected to the application for leave for judicial review being sought by three individuals to challenge the decision by Home Minister Datuk Seri Saifuddin Nasution Ismail in approving Umno's additional motion to exempt its top two posts from being contested at the party elections.

They were Kampung Bukit C2 Lembah Pantai Umno branch members Satarriah Abdul Karim and Zaidi Abdul Majid and Lembah Pantai MIC branch member P. Vellasamy, who filed the application on May 15 naming Saifuddin, the Registrar of Societies (RoS) and Umno as respondents.
