Court of Appeal allowed Tengku Adnan's appeal to set aside judge Mohd Nazlan's decision in refusing to recuse himself from hearing the trial.
Former Federal Territories minister Tengku Adnan Tengku Mansor won his appeal at the Court of Appeal here today to recuse High Court judge Mohd Nazlan Mohd Ghazali from hearing his ongoing RM1 million corruption trial.
He allowed the appeal for Mohd Nazlan to recuse himself from hearing Tengku Adnan's trial and for the case to be transferred to another court. The Putrajaya Member of Parliament was charged with corruptly receiving for himself RM1 million from businessman Tan Eng Boon. Earlier, Tengku Adnan's counsel Tan Hock Chuan submitted that Justice Mohd Nazlan ought to have recused himself from hearing the case because he had read and considered the facts of the case of Eng Boon who had pleaded guilty and fined RM1.5 million for abetting Tengku Adnan in the RM1 million graft case.“The High Court judge has some knowledge about the case and certainly the facts are prejudicial to my client and therefore he should not hear the case,” said Hock Chuan.
