Muar MP Syed Saddiq Syed Abdul Rahman is seeking a civil court order to overturn an alleged decision by Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim and the government to cancel RM730,300 for his parliamentary constituency.
The former youth and sports minister and three other applicants filed the judicial review leave application at the Kuala Lumpur High Court on April 23.
The other three applicants are voters in the Muar constituency.
The former Muda president also seeks an order of certiorari to quash an alleged decision by the two respondents - the premier (who is not named) and the federal government - to cancel the applicant's access to the myKHAS system that managed an application for RM2 million allocation for the Muar constituency.
According to a copy of his affidavit, Syed Saddiq claimed that the alleged decision came right after Muda decided to pull out of the unity government on Sept 10 last year.
The former Bersatu youth chief said despite having met Deputy Prime Minister II Fadillah Yusof twice up to April this year to discuss the matter, Anwar and the government allegedly still failed to channel the allocation to the Muar constituency.
Syed Saddiq noted that five opposition parliamentarians who pledged support to Anwar immediately got full allocations to their constituencies.
The cited opposition politicians are Labuan MP Suhaili Abdul Rahman, Jeli MP Zahari Kechik, Gua Musang MP Mohd Azizi Abu Naim, Kuala Kangsar MP Iskandar Dzulkarnain Abdul Khalid, and Tanjong Karang MP Zulkafperi Hanapi.
Law firm Messrs Lim Wei Jiet represented the judicial review applicants. - Mkini
