PUTRAJAYA, Nov 13 — The Federal Court has fixed February 25 next year to hear an application by the family of murdered Mongolian national Altantuya Shaariibuu for leave to appeal against a Court of Appeal ruling that reduced the damages awarded over her death in 2006.
Lawyer Abraham Au, representing political analyst Abdul Razak Baginda, confirmed the date when contacted by Bernama.
He said the court also set Dec 3 to hear the family’s application to amend its notice of motion seeking leave to appeal, following case management before Federal Court deputy registrar Rohaiza Hamzah yesterday.
Altantuya’s family filed the leave application on February 19 this year after the Court of Appeal reduced the damages awarded to them from RM5 million to RM1.4 million.
