KUALA LUMPUR: Former prime minister Muhyiddin Yassin has been barred from travelling overseas, court documents show.
Muhyiddin’s party, Bersatu is challenging the travel ban in a judicial review application filed in the High Court.
“The travel ban was imposed because Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim is worried that Muhyiddin will speak about the political changes and developments in Malaysia at an international forum,” it said in the application.
Muhyiddin was scheduled to speak at a forum overseas.
Bersatu claimed the travel ban was wrongly imposed on Muhyiddin and that he was not notified.
The party said the travel ban was aimed at tarnishing Muhyiddin’s reputation and made it seem as if the Pagoh MP had committed a crime and was seeking to escape.
The travel ban also violates Muhyiddin’s rights under the Federal Constitution, Bersatu said.
