The Court of Appeal also rejected an application by the Dhamma Sakyamuni Caves Monastery for a stay of execution pending an appeal to the Federal Court.

Dhamma Sakyamuni Caves Monastery said the monks have occupied part of the land in Gunung Kanthan, Perak, for more than 100 years.

A three-member bench of the Court of Appeal said the monastery had failed to raise any triable issue to prevent the grant of order. In the appeal heard online earlier this week, the bench accepted the company’s argument that as registered owners they were entitled to succeed in a summary application for possession.

They also asked for the application to be dismissed as the company had suppressed material evidence in their application by not disclosing to the court the fact that the land was occupied by the monastery.
