This is on the High Court's rejection of the family's bid to use the Federal Court's criminal verdict on Altantuya's murder for their civil lawsuit.

The family of Mongolian Altantuya Shaariibuu today withdrew their appeal against a High Court's dismissal of their bid to use the Federal Court’s criminal verdict over her murder for their civil lawsuit.

Justice Badariah Sahamid, who chaired the bench, subsequently struck out the appeal. The other two judges were Justice Harmindar Singh Dhaliwal and Justice Nor Bee Ariffin. Then High Court judge Vazeer Alam Mydin Meera ruled that Section 43 of the Evidence Act 1950 does not allow the use of criminal convictions in civil cases.

They had named two police officers, namely Chief Inspector Azilah Hadri and Corporal Sirul Azhar Umar, political analyst Abdul Razak Baginda and the government as defendants in the suit.
