National carrier Malaysia Airlines has been ordered by the Court of Appeal to release documents related to the disappearance of Flight MH370 two years ago to 76 family members of those on the ill-fated flight.
This follows the appellate court today unanimously dismissing an appeal by Malaysian Airline System Bhd, the administration company of Malaysia Airlines Bhd, on the decision of the High Court in Kuala Lumpur on Sept 8 last year, ordering the national carrier to produce the documents.
Justice Tengku Maimun Tuan Mat, who led a three-member bench in rejecting MAS’ appeal, said there was no compelling and substantive reason for the court to disturb the order.
