Sixteen Umno members seek to compel ROS to dissolve Umno



Sixteen Umno branch members have filed an application for leave to proceed with a judicial review to quash the Registrar of Societies' (ROS) decision to allow Umno a time extension to hold its party elections at all levels.
The application was filed with the Kuala Lumpur High Court.
The 16, from 11 branches in six states, named the ROS and Umno organising secretary Abdul Rauf Yusoh as respondents.
The applicants are also seeking a mandamus order to compel the ROS to utilise Section 13, 14, 16 and 66 of the Societies Act to investigate the party based on the correspondence it sent to the ROS.
Alternatively, the applicants are seeking a mandamus order to compel the ROS to take action against Rauf for allegedly violating Article 9.3, Article 9.4, 15.3, 18.2 and 10.16 of the Umno constitution for not holding the party elections within the 18 months provided for.
In addition to this, the applicants also sought for the de-registration of Umno once the ROS completed its investigations into the alleged violations.
The applicants also sought to compel the ROS to issue a notice under Section 14(2) and 14(5) under the Societies Act for provisional dissolution and permanent dissolution.
The applicants are also seeking for the court to compel the ROS to suspend all Umno's activities until the disposal of the judicial review.
The applicants are also seeking a declaration that all Umno branches do not have legal effect, as well as all party divisions and the Umno supreme council, be dissolved effective today, April 20, 2018.
They are further seeking the dissolution of Umno effective today.
This follows their argument that the last day for the branches to hold their elections was on Feb 28 and the last day for the supreme council and 191 divisions to function was yesterday (April 19).
The branches last held their elections on Aug 31, 2013 and were supposed to hold a fresh election by Aug 31, 2016 before being granted an extension of 18 months by the ROS.
The 16 applicants, aged between 30 and 55, are Salihudin Ahmad Khalid, Noor Halimi Yahya, Mariam Mohd Ishak, Mohd Hafami Hanif, Saharuddin Tukiman, Azaid Jani, Normalawati Hassan, Radiana Abd Manaf, Mohd Raafeek Rahim, Nurul Hanna Mohd Suhot, Kamarul Abd Wahid, Mohd Hikamal Md Hassim, Muzamzamir Abd Wahab, Norizam Jamaludin, Rohani Ahmad, and Muhamad Hafizi Hashim.
The members are represented by senior lawyer Mohd Haniff Khatri Abdulla, who also represents former Umno president and current Pakatan Harapan chairperson Dr Mahathir Mohamad. - Mkini
