KANGAR: The Kangar High Court dismissed an application by the Perlis Football Association (PFA) for an injunction to prevent the Football Association of Malaysia (FAM) from conducting its 61st Congress scheduled to take place on Feb 15.
This was confirmed by PFA president Zamri Ibrahim after the hearing of the application for the order which took place before Judge Dr Arik Sanusi Yeop Johari via Zoom on Friday (Feb 7).
"The injunction was rejected," Zamri told Bernama briefly via WhatsApp.
Meanwhile, on the PFA suit against FAM, Zamri said the judge ordered the suit to be referred for arbitration.
In December last year, the PFA, as the plaintiff through Messrs Zamri Ibrahim & Co, filed an application for the injunction, naming 20 defendants, including FAM, its president Tan Sri Hamidin Mohd Amin, vice-president Datuk Mohd Joehari Mohd Ayub and the Malaysian Sports Commissioner.
The PFA also filed a suit against FAM to challenge the decision to suspend the association as an affiliate of the parent body during the FAM Executive Committee Meeting on Dec 4, 2024. - Bernama
