KUALA LUMPUR― The DAP today withdrew a judicial review filed against the Registrar of Societies (RoS), after the regulator conceded that its refusal to recognise the party's central executive committee (CEC) was not legally enforceable.
DAP's lead counsel Gobind Singh Deo said the RoS agreed to the contention that the orders given in a December 6, 2013 letter issued to party secretary-general Lim Guan Eng did not amount to a legally binding directive.
“The RoS takes the position that those statements do not amount to any decision in law,” he told High Court judge Datuk Zaleha Yusof when reading out a prepared statement.
“As such, those orders are not legally binding and remain merely advice to the DAP and the RoS recognises that the DAP CEC elected on September 29, 2013 may carry out all its powers, functions and duties in the administration of the daily affairs of the DAP in accordance with the constitution of the DAP,” Gobind added. - Malay Mail
