The Kuala Lumpur High Court allowed the withdrawal after lawyer Khairul Azam Abdul Aziz said he was instructed to discontinue the application.

KUALA LUMPUR: The four purported undangs who sought to remove Tuanku Muhriz Tuanku Munawir as the Negeri Sembilan ruler have dropped their bid for leave to commence a judicial review to compel the menteri besar to sign a declaration to dethrone the Yang Dipertuan Besar.

High Court judge Norliza Othman allowed the withdrawal after lawyer Khairul Azam Abdul Aziz said he was instructed to discontinue the application.

Norliza also barred the four – the purported chieftains of Sungai Ujong, Rembau, Jelebu and Johol – from filing a fresh application on the same subject matter.
