Ex-officer takes Agong to court over military pay dispute

A former army captain is suing the Yang di-Pertuan Agong and the government for allegedly conspiring to reduce the dignity of the armed forces by slashing the pay of its officers.

This is former military officer Tengku Zainal Abidin Tengku Yusoff’s sixth lawsuit of a similar nature, after the court dismissed his previous claims in 1995, 2001, 2007, 2012 and 2015.

However, this is the first time Tengku Zainal Abidin is naming the Agong in his suit, and he is also acting on his own, instead of claiming to represent another 403 other officers.
