Hisyam then asked for the court to adjourn for another 10 minutes to allow Shafee to be present.

This, however, was rejected by Chief Justice Tun Tengku Maimun Tuan Mat who had ordered Hisyam to proceed with his submission on recusing her.https://t.co/gJZkuZJ97X

Hisyam wants the recusal application to be heard first, CJ insisted that he instead respond to the prosecution’s argument on Friday over his refusal to submit.

Hisyam initially refused, wanting things his way.

The authorities are clear, and the lawyers are right: The Federal Court could make a ruling even if there were no submissions from former prime minister Najib Razak’s counsel. https://t.co/BNw81ecHZG
