OCTOBER 8 — Like the 10 Negeri Sembilan assembly persons, Perak assemblyman Datuk Seri Ir Mohammad Nizar Jamaluddin too took to the court in early February 2009 to seek for declarations: (a) that he was still the Menteri Besar (MB) of Perak; (b) on the Interpretation of Article 16(6) of the State Constitution; and (c) that Datuk Seri Dr Zambry Abdul Kadir had no legal right to be MB of Perak.
A writ of “quo warranto” was also sought to be issued against Dr Zambry to show cause and to give information how and under what authority he could act as the MB of Perak.
The High Court granted the declaration that Nizar at all material times was the MB and the writ of quo warranto was issued against Dr Zambry.
