The Federal Court Chief Registrar's Office today clarified that an incident involving journalists being barred from covering the hearing of Umno president Ahmad Zahid Hamidi's daughter, Nurulhidayah Ahmad Zahid and her husband Saiful Nizam Mohd Yusoff, was an oversight.

In a statement, the office said there was no instruction given to ban the media from the open court proceedings before Magistrate Shah Wira Abdul Halim and that the court "did not realise the presence of the media" in the court room yesterday.
