In the court’s decision, Justice Vernon Ong Lam Kiat, who led the three-member panel of judges, said after considering the arguments raised and perusing the appeal records, leave was refused with no order as to cost as the matter relates to public interest. On February 6, 2020, Balamurugan obtained leave from the High Court to commence a judicial review seeking a court order to delist LTTE as a terrorist group in the country. After hearing his judicial review, the court dismissed it on September 17, 2020.

In his judicial review, naming the home minister and the government as respondents, Balamurugan sought to declare the LTTE details in the gazette as null and void and the listing of LTTE as unlawful because it was ultra vires to the Federal Constitution.
