  "account": "Perikatan Nasional (PN) has had its registration cancelled by the Malaysian Registration of Societies Department (JPPM) after thorough investigation into the documents and representations submitted to address a previous notice from Bersatu, following an appeal filed by the coalition. JPPM's decision was made based on section 13(1)(c)(iv) of the Societies Act 1966, which considers the thorough examination of documents and representations submitted by PN on October 12.\n\nThe notice, dated September 22, was issued to PN under section 13(2) of the Societies Act 1966, giving the party an opportunity to present explanations and representations regarding the issues raised. After reviewing all the documents and explanations provided, JPPM found the reasons given insufficient to negate the grounds for cancellation as stated in the notice.\n\nOn September 24, JPPM informed that the status of PN was on hold, while the coalition was given a reasonable period to respond to the notice filed under section 13(2) of the Societies Act 1966 (Act 832) to clarify the appeal made to Bersatu. JPPM stated that all activities related to PN would be suspended as of September 23, in line with section 13(2A) of the Act.\n\nOn October 5, PN filed an application for permission to appeal the JPPM notice with the Federal Court in Kuala Lumpur. The High Court in Kuala Lumpur granted PN's permission to initiate the appeal process against the two notices issued by JPPM on October 13. However, Justice Azizan Arshad did not grant a stay of proceedings for the suspension of PN's activities by JPPM for an unspecified period.",
