Citing the danger of interference of jurisdiction between the civil courts and the criminal courts.
Senior Federal Counsel Shamsul Bolhassan, in his submission, told the High Court that the move to freeze the political party's bank account could not be challenged through a judicial review as the power to issue the order was part of the mechanism in an investigation.
"Therefore, we submit that by allowing the leave application on the freeze order, this will bring to an interference by the civil courts on to the jurisdiction of the criminal courts," he added. Meanwhile, Bersatu's lawyer Rosli Dahlan argued that the leave application to challenge both the freeze order and the travel ban must be allowed as there were live issues which needed to be ventilated at a substantive judicial review hearing.
High Court judge Justice Ahmad Kamal Md Shahid then fixed May 17 for decision on the leave application.
