The former executive councillor submitted notice of motion on October 14, seeking to contest the decision to revoke his appointment. The case names Negeri Sembilan's State Development Corporation (SUK) and the state government as respondents in the legal proceedings.
The judicial review application represents an attempt to overturn the administrative decision through the courts. The December 16 hearing will provide the former official an opportunity to present arguments challenging the validity of the appointment cancellation.
Details surrounding the circumstances of the original appointment termination were not immediately disclosed. The case comes as Negeri Sembilan continues to navigate its political landscape following recent changes in state administration.
The outcome of the court hearing could have implications for how such executive appointments and their cancellations are handled in future cases within the state.
