The earlier panel comprised then Chief Judge of Sabah and Sarawak Abang Iskandar Abang Hashim and Federal Court judges Mohamad Zabidin Mohd Diah , Nallini Pathmanathan and Mary Lim Thiam Suan. Meanwhile, lawyer Mohamed Haniff Khatri Abdulla said Najib’s legal team will have to convince the new panel that the previous panel did not give a fair hearing in the case.
However, Haniff said if Najib’s review application is rejected, then the matter will end as there are no more appeals from the review.On August 23, Tengku Maimun, in dismissing Najib’s final appeal, had said that in the appeals where counsel is present in name and in person but persistently refuses to make any submission despite repeated calls from the court to do so, the court is empowered to proceed with the appeals according to section 92 of the Courts of the Judicature Act 1964.
