Court to decide on The Edge's suspension this Friday

Court to decide on The Edge's suspension this Friday
KUALA LUMPUR - The High Court here has set Friday for its ruling on The Edge Financial Daily's and The Edge Weekly's application for a stay order against the business papers' three-month suspension pending their judicial review of the ban.
The hearing for the business publications' judicial review of the Home Ministry's suspension that took effect on July 27 has been set on September 7.
“Friday is the decision for the stay order pending the disposal of the judicial review,” The Edge lawyer Darryl Goon told reporters after the case was heard in chambers before Justice Datuk Asmabi Mohamad today.
The Home Ministry last month suspended the printing permits of The Edge Financial Daily and its weekly sister for three months over their reports on debt-riddled state investor 1Malaysia Development Berhad (1MDB).
Putrajaya has claimed that The Edge's 1MDB reports could affect public order and said the business papers' reporting had created negative public perceptions towards 1MDB and had implicated the government, national news agency Bernama reported last month.
Several journalist groups recently organised two rallies, drawing hundreds of journalists, activists and ordinary citizens, to protest against the suspension. - Malay mail
