PUTRAJAYA, Sept 11 (Bernama) -- The Court of Appeal has dismissed former prime minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin's application to review the decision of its previous panel that reinstated the four power abuse charges involving RM232.5 million against him.
A five-member panel led by Judge Datuk Azizah Nawawi in unanimous decision held that the earlier panel had a requisite jurisdiction to hear and adjudicate the prosecution's appeal.
"Therefore, the application for review is dismissed," Justice Azizah said.
The other judges in the panel are Datuk Che Mohd Ruzima Ghazali, Datuk Ahmad Zaidi Ibrahim, Datuk Azman Abdullah and Datuk Azhahari Kamal Ramli.
This means Muhyiddin will have to face trial over four power abuse charges at the Kuala Lumpur Sessions Court.
