KUALA LUMPUR: Former prime minister Muhyiddin Yassin has been barred from travelling overseas, court documents show.
Muhyiddin’s party, Bersatu is challenging the travel ban in a judicial review application filed in the High Court.
“The travel ban was imposed because Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim is worried that Muhyiddin will speak about the political changes and developments in Malaysia at an international forum,” it said in the application.
Muhyiddin was scheduled to speak at a forum overseas.
Bersatu claimed the travel ban was wrongly imposed on Muhyiddin and that he was not notified.
It was earlier reported that Bersatu had filed legal action against the decision by the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) to freeze its bank accounts.
The party filed an application in the High Court yesterday, claiming that the decision to freeze its bank accounts was done in bad faith.
