High Court rules that the decision by the local authority and the mayor was tainted with ‘irrationality’ and was ‘unreasonable’.

The Seremban city council failed to inform the company of the state government’s policy not to allow the building of any new waste management facilities.

The judge added that the council and mayor had acted improperly by making the approval subject to the company withdrawing a libel suit against Rasah MP Cha Kee Chin. Azizul, who is now a Court of Appeal judge, instead ordered the respondents to pay SPM Resources damages for the period commencing Nov 11, 2020, when the planning approval was initially given, until May 24 last year, when it was revoked.The judge also allowed SPM Resources costs of RM30,000.

The judge ruled that they had also failed to state when this policy had come into existence despite being asked to do so.
