Former prime minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad has issued a legal notice to Umno Supreme Council member Datuk Dr Mohd Puad Zarkashi, demanding a written and public apology.

The High Court on Tuesday dismissed an application by the former operator of the Kuala Lumpur Tower for an ad interim injunction to halt the award of the KL Tower concession to a subsidiary of Lim Seong Hai Capital Bhd (KL:LSH), LSH Service Master Sdn Bhd.

The Court of Appeal (COA) on Friday has fixed June 24 to deliver its decision over the Federal Territory Land Registrar’s appeal over having to register the 263.272-acre prime Kuala Lumpur land known as the “Duta enclave” back to Semantan Estate (1952) Sdn Bhd, following a High Court decision last August.
The long-standing Semantan Estate (1952) Sdn Bhd dispute with the government could bring into question the issue of the rule of law in the country, as what the company and its liquidators possess is a judicial order by the High Court, and affirmed by the Federal Court, that leaves no doubt that the taking and occupation of the 263.272-acre prime Kuala Lumpur land known as the ‘Duta enclave’ is unlawful, but the matter had yet to be rectified, said the lawyers for the company.
The Federal Territory Land Registrar and the government told the Court of Appeal on Thursday that Semantan Estate (1952) Sdn Bhd is not entitled to the recovery of the 263.272 acres of prime Kuala Lumpur land known as the "Duta enclave", but it is entitled to receive compensation.
As there is no settlement in sight for the multibillion half-century dispute of 263.272 acres of prime land in Kuala Lumpur called the “Duta enclave”, appeals by Semantan Estate (1952) Sdn Bhd and the cross-appeal by the Federal Territory Land Registrar and the federal government will proceed for two days at the Court of Appeal on Thursday and Friday (Feb 20 and 21).
