On September 15, the High Court decided not to pursue contempt proceedings against Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) officer Mazery Mohd Zaini, accepting his explanations regarding his colleague's police report against former Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin's lawyer. Muhyiddin's lawyers had accused Mazery of contempt due to his actions that led to the police report.
The judge, Noor Ruwena Md Nurdin, accepted Mazery's explanation that he wanted to ensure there was no information leak from MACC itself. The judge noted that all prosecution witnesses had been instructed not to discuss the trial matters with anyone while on the witness stand.
