PETALING JAYA: A lawyer has filed for leave to initiate judicial review proceedings over the authorities’ investigations following Ahmad Zahid Hamidi’s conditional discharge in his Yayasan Akalbudi corruption case over two years ago.
Syed Amir Syakib Arsalan Syed Ibrahim said his application did not challenge the attorney-general’s (AG) discretion to apply for a discharge not amounting to acquittal (DNAA), nor did it seek to predetermine any prosecutorial outcome.
“Instead, it seeks clarity, accountability, and timely resolution following the reasons that were publicly advanced to justify the DNAA, namely that further and more comprehensive investigations were required.
