The Syariah High Court did not issue any order to the  police to retrieve the children of K Pathmanathan @ Mohd Ridhuan Abdullah, who is involved in a bitter child custody battle with his former wife M Indira Gandhi, the High Court in Ipoh heard.

This was told to High Court judge Lee Swee Seng yesterday afternoon by Indira’s lawyer M Kulasegaran, after senior federal counsel Shamsulbol Hassan applied for a postponement of the hearing of Indira’s application to initiate judicial review to compel Inspector-General of Police Khalid Abu Bakar to act on High Court order issued to him.
