The Court of Appeal, in a majority decision, allowed the Election Commission's bid to remove a stay order imposed by the Kuala Lumpur High Court which prevented the commission from holding a local inquiry into the objections toward the redelineation exercise in Selangor.
The decision was made amid a 40-minute fire drill at the Palace of Justice in Putrajaya which led to the packed public gallery being evacuated, although proceedings continued.
Following a recess, Justice Idrus Harun announced the decision. Justice Idrus and Justice Yaacob Md Sam had allowed the decision while Justice Rhodzariah Bujang dissented.
