: Three bridal make-up artists lost their bid to obtain leave to review the 2015 Federal Court’s decision which set aside the Court of Appeal’s ruling that a provision in the Negri Sembilan Syariah law against cross-dressers was unconstitutional.
Also presiding on the panel were Federal Court judges Puan Sri Zaleha Yusof, Datuk Zabariah Mohd Yusof, Datuk Mary Lim Thiam Suan and Datuk Harmindar Singh Dhaliwal. He had held that the appeals brought by the Negri Sembilan state government, Department of Islamic Religious Affairs, its director, the state’s Syariah enforcement chief and chief Syarie prosecutor were incompetent as the three applicants had used the wrong procedure to commence their legal challenge to the legality of the state Syariah law.
Negri Sembilan state legal adviser Muzalmah Mustapha Kamal, representing the respondents, said the application should be dismissed as the applicants had not shown that they were adversely affected by the decision. On Oct 11, 2012, the High Court dismissed the judicial review application by Muhamad Juzaili, Shukor and Wan Fairol.
