Alor Setar High Court rejects GISBH challenge against Kedah fatwa
The Alor Setar High Court dismissed an application by GISB Holdings Sdn Bhd and its CEO Nasiruddin Ali to challenge a Kedah fatwa declaring GISBH a deviant teachings organisation. Judge Evawani Farisyta Mohammad ruled the civil court has no jurisdiction as the fatwa involves the Sultan's prerogative. GISBH and Nasiruddin will appeal, after similar challenges in Shah Alam and Kangar were also rejected.
