The appeal by TV3 or Sistem Televisyen (M) Bhd, based on “judicial bias”, against former Perak menteri besar Mohd Nizar Jamaluddin's defamation suit is fixed to be heard in the Federal Court tomorrow.

There is only one question to be decided by the apex court - whether there was bias or a real danger of bias in the Court of Appeal coram in regard to the chairperson of the coram having a relationship with (or, knowing) Nizar.

TV3 has alleged that former Court of Appeal judge Mohamad Ariff Mohd Yusof, who led the three-man bench, could have been biased.
