The High Court in Kuala Lumpur has dismissed a leave application from Bersih 2.0 chairperson Maria Chin Abdullah to stop the present redelineation exercise.

Judicial Commissioner Azizul Azmi Adnan said today that while the application for leave was not frivolous he could not see how there was an arguable case to be made.

"I accept that the application is not frivolous, taking into account the fact that the matter for which a review is sought affects the fundamental expression of a constitutionally-guaranteed right that is the hallmark of a free democratic society, namely the right to vote."
