00:00 The prosecution seeks to dismiss Muhyiddin Yassin's review application concerning the

00:06 Court of Appeals' decision to overturn a High Court ruling acquitting him of four abuse

00:11 of power charges.

00:13 Deputy Public Prosecutor 1 Shaharuddin Wanladdin said this to Sessions Court Judge Azura Albi

00:19 during case mentioned today.

00:21 A copy of the prosecution's preliminary objection cited by FMT said the former Prime Minister's

00:27 review application was frivolous and an abuse of the court process.

00:31 Muhyiddin, in his review application, requested another Court of Appeal bench to use its inherent

00:37 powers to overturn the February 28 Appellate Court ruling and reinstate the High Court

00:43 ruling issued on August 15, 2023.

00:46 In allowing the prosecution's appeal, a three-member Court of Appeal bench chaired by Justice Hadari

00:51 Asai Nismayil ruled that the High Court had erred in law in finding the charges defective.

00:57 Muhyiddin was charged in March last year with abusing his power as Prime Minister between

01:02 February 8 and August 20, 2021, in connection with the Jana Wibawa programme, by seeking

01:08 to obtain Rs 232.5 million for Prasadu.

01:13 Another case mentioned has been fixed for May 8, pending the outcome of the case management

01:17 in the Court of Appeal on April 16.
