KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 6 — The High Court has scheduled October 13 for Perikatan Nasional (PN) to seek judicial review against the Registrar of Societies' (RoS) suspension order. The application, filed by PN and PAS secretaries-general, along with Gerakan and MIPP secretaries-general, argues that the RoS' September 23 suspension order has significantly impacted the coalition's ability to conduct political activities, including participating in the Melaka State Election.
The order has prohibited PN and its organs from convening meetings or making decisions, potentially leading to legal consequences for party officials. PN seeks a certiorari order to invalidate the suspension under the Societies Act 1966. They are also contesting the September 22, 2026 notice to deregister PN after 30 days, claiming the RoS lacks jurisdiction to decide Bersatu's membership status in PN.
The applicants argue that the RoS did not provide PN with the opportunity to respond to complaints or present documents supporting the suspension order.
