The Inspector-General of Police (JPPM) and the Interior Ministry have launched an appeal against a High Court judgment concerning the deregistration of Perikatan Nasional (PN), signalling their intention to challenge the lower court's ruling.
According to the appeal notice filed, the police chief and the ministry are dissatisfied with the High Court's decision on the matter. The appeal represents a significant development in the ongoing legal proceedings surrounding PN's registration status.
The move comes as part of ongoing litigation related to the political coalition's administrative standing. Both the JPPM and Interior Ministry have indicated through formal notice that they intend to pursue the matter through the appellate process.
The appeal will now proceed through Malaysia's court system, where the higher court will review the High Court's decision and determine whether to uphold, overturn, or modify the previous judgment. This development extends what has been a closely-watched legal battle with implications for the political landscape.
