Adib's case: Feb 8 verdict on committal bid against ex-AG

The Court of Appeal has set Feb 8 to decide whether the coroner who heard the inquest into fireman Muhammad Adib Mohd Kassim’s death has the jurisdiction to issue leave to commence committal proceedings against former attorney-general Tommy Thomas.

The date was fixed by a three-member panel comprising judges Suraya Othman, Abu Bakar Jais and Hashim Hamzah in a virtual proceeding today.
